A competitive runner in her teenage years, these days Grete is a busy mom to Henry, 7, and Logan, 9. In the little spare time she has, Grete loves to do the Estonian crosswords that her mother sends her from Eesti. Her entire family likes spending time at Lättemäe and on weekends you can often find them there.
When the position of MES president became vacant at the end of 2019, the executive was unanimous in its support of Grete for the job. Her high energy, super organizational skills and network of contacts among younger Estos in Montreal bring a new vitality to the MES.
It has been a challenging first year for the new president. Despite this year’s pause due to Covid-19, Grete has still chaired numerous online executive meetings and overseen the upkeep of Lättemäe. She is looking forward to the time when the MES can resume its activities. Her goal, she says, is to bring together multiple generations of Estonians and their friends, both in Montreal and at Lättemäe.
