OUR STORY
Meet our family
We are a three-generation family who loves living and working in Ocean Falls!
Les and Toni had been coming to Ocean Falls for over 20 years as "summer folk" before purchasing the old CIBC building in January 2018.
Their son Marcus and his two oldest children, Angela and Sebastian arrived from Venezuela to register them for school in January 2020 and Marc went to work renovating the old firehouse across the street into a residence for his family.
Severed unexpectedly by covid, his wife Genesis and youngest son, Zachary were unable to enter Canada until restrictions were lifted 15 months later, in April of 2021.
Family now complete, the children are homeschooled and take part in everything it takes to keep up with a busy life of running the Old Bank Inn, Firehouse Bakery, Little Licker Store as well as finding time for their own adventures!
