- Object History
- The Victorian Order of Nurses for Canada is a non-profit charitable organization created for the purposes of home care and social services established in 1898 to perpetuate the memory of Victoria the Good. The Burnaby Branch of the Victorian Order of Nurses (VON) was established in 1912 with Miss Colhoun as its first nurse. Florence Hart was born in 1898 in New Westminster, and moved to Burnaby when she was 13. Her family lived in what is now known as Hart House. Both Florence and her husband Harold Godwin were awarded life memberships from the VON (Victorian Order of Nurses) for more than half a century of service. Hear her discuss her involvement with VON during the Great Depression: https://search.heritageburnaby.ca/permalink/oralhistory13 https://search.heritageburnaby.ca/permalink/oralhistory14 https://search.heritageburnaby.ca/permalink/oralhistory15
