Nelliene Leifer, Russell, Manitoba
Governor General's Caring Canadian Award
Over the last 50 years, Nelliene Leifer has enriched her community through her music. Miss Leifer generously gives of her time and talent when a pianist is needed to play at any function, whether it is for a whole evening, or just to play the national anthem. In addition, she also served as a Sunday school teacher for many years. Miss Leifer now leads sing-alongs at seniors' residences, directs the senior choir at her church and plays the organ during service.
