Biographical history
Vera Raeside (Keith) was born in Lenore, Manitoba, November 27, 1908. Although she later moved with her family to Medicine Hat, Vera received her nurses training at the Grace Hospital in Winnipeg. She met her husband, Jack Raeside (1905-1969) in Medicine Hat and they moved to Jasper in 1938. Together, they established and ran Raeside's Hardware Store. When the store burned down, Jack took over a fishing and tackle and boat rental concession at Jasper Park Lodge. They had one daughter, Gwen Anne. Gwen married Ron Craig. The couple is now in Canmore, Alberta. They did not have any children. Vera died in 1989.
