I don't remember a Canadian collector, but we did have an RG from the lower midwestern US who used her full name as her forum handle. She had an incredible collection of vintage sweaters and other more quirky collectibles, and had her home set up to display her treasures to their best advantage.no longer a member, or no longer... with us.
IIRC over time she grew increasingly uncomfortable with the idea that VFG members (and some guests) bought & sold things as opposed to pure collecting. At some point, she deleted all the photos and information she had shared in the public forums and ended her RG status.
