In the spirit of the recently celebrated Valentine's Day, Ramon Gonzalez of the Western Catholic Reporter shares some lasting love stories from Edmonton:

Andy Johnson met Elsie at a dance in McLennan in late 1954. She had just graduated from nursing school in Edmonton and was serving her first year at the McLennan Hospital. He was a train conductor.

They liked each other enough to continue seeing each other. He even got transferred to Edmonton to be closer to Elsie.

“I kind of liked him,” she recalled. “He was a good dancer.”
