Florence Carter of Leaside has been given a high honour in the form of a Diamond Jubilee Medal. Ms. Carter, 85, received the honour for her long years of work on behalf of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) where she was an educator. She lost her sight at the age of 16. This signal tribute occurred recently at the 2012 Braille Conference and is the subject of a story in Inside.Toronto.
