- Abe Palmer, son of Moshe and Rose Palmer, was born at Billings Bridge, Ottawa. When he was ten or eleven, the family moved to Ottawa and he attended Rideau Street Public School. Bertha Palmer was born in Navazibkoff, White Russia and came to Ottawa in 1927 as a young woman of 16 or 17 years of age with her senior matriculations and a fine singing voice. SHe was sponsored by her uncle Louis Leiken who had come to Ottawa in 1910 with her father, Joseph Leiken. Bertha Palmer became the first UJA Women's Division chair in 1972. Abe Palmer was a successful businessman. Early in his business life he had a partnership with his cousin Abraham Held, in a business called Rideau Plumbing and Heating Limited. Then he established a wholesale plumbing and heating business called Palmer’s Plumbing and Heating Supply Limited. He sold this business in the 1960's to a Calgary firm called Westburn Industries Ltd. He was a “mover and shaker” in that industry and was the Plumbing Division Chairman of the Canadian Institute of Plumbing and Heating. The Palmers were always active and highly respected in the Ottawa Jewish community and were among the founders of the Ottawa Modern Jewish School. Abe served two terms as chairman of Israel Bonds in the late 1960's and was President of the Jewish Community Council of Ottawa from 1970-1972.

- The program opens with Sonia reciting a poem about water. Sonia is filmed near Almonte, at one of her favourite spots where the water rushes in and around some rocks. She attempts to capture the spiritual feelings found in nature in her water colour paintings and works to share this experience with others. Transition is the theme of her plein-air paintings, which the water symbolizes. She paints the energy of sacred places that speak to her and hopes that the beauty she sees will come out through her painting.
