Stay classy saskatchewan.
SASKATOON - Doris Lemke, a soft-spoken and soft-hearted woman of 57, hasn't had the easiest life.
The resident of Saskatoon lost her daughter to cancer at the age of 12, raised her two boys as a single mom on social assistance and is now watching her 22-year-old son battle illness as well.
She's taken a lot, but when anonymous thieves stripped her apple tree bare in the middle of the night, she could take no more.
"WHO STOLE MY APPLES?" she roared in a posting on Kijiji that has sparked outrage and a bushel of support from fellow citizens.
"My son has cancer, I am a single mom who had to quit work to care for him. Can hardly afford to buy food. We were looking forward to eating the apples from my tree for the winter.
"Does no one ask anymore? I know how to share. Who needed all 250 apples on my tree? That was so mean and selfish."
