Interview's notes

Long description of interview: Bob Farrow and his wife Roni, takes an active part in the Residents' Association. All the interviewees were very passionate about their community. Though Eileen and Rose were not brought up in the area they still had a great sense of helping each other. Bob, unfortunately, was called away during the interview but I felt he contributed well before his departure.
