A family ripped apart by the Sixties Scoop more than 40 years ago was reunited for the first time in Winnipeg on Friday afternoon. Lorna Piepers, 52, was one of the children apprehended and was relocated to Edmonton. The family welcomes their mother, Lena Woodhouse, to the family reunion. It was the first time that the Woodhouse family was able to have their family in the same room since they were apprehended four decades ago. Lena Woodhouse, the mother of the children apprehended, was the last of the family members to arrive at the reunion.
