The Founder

"It's so nice to meet you!"

Robyn Pearson

Since founding A Friend Indeed in 2010, I have had the privilege of spending time with some amazing people –both seniors and their families in Airdrie, Calgary and the surrounding area.

I know it can be difficult for them to reach out and I have seen a consistency in their calls. The family wants more for their loved one and the loved one wants more from their life. My experience in asking the right questions has been invaluable during consultations with families. By asking the right questions and using creativity, it helps the family member uncover the best possible plan that fulfills their loved one’s needs and supports the family. Overwhelm turns into excitement!

I grew up in a small town called Fruitvale B.C. I have many memories watching my mom stop in and visit the elderly. Small acts of kindness and time spent together left meaningful impressions for the seniors and for mom and me. My family and I have lived in Alberta since 1992 and moved to Airdrie in 2005.

My mom now resides in Calgary, Alberta to be closer to her children and she continues to be the model for A Friend Indeed.
