THE ICELANDIC CANADIAN
7
effective public speaker. Canadian, Ameri-
can, and Icelandic patriot. This is but the tip
of the iceberg.
It is tempting — almost compelling — to
elaborate further on all her countless activi-
ties, but space and time dictate otherwise.
How she accomplished so much in the short
span of a lifetime will always remain a
mystery. Dedication, of course. What else?
Inexhaustible energy? Sheer will power?
Only she knows, but it is comforting and
reassuring for mankind to know that women
have been strong in the years gone by, are
now, and will be for the years to come.
Freda avows though, that but for the
encouragements and the loving support of
her husband, Hjalmur, she could not have
performed as effectively as she did. A
strong woman and a strong man working in
unison! What an unbeatable team!
With the passage of time the actors leave
the stage of life. Many are soon forgotten,
but there are a few whose performance de-
serves to be remembered and appreciated
from generation unto generation.
