“The House That Love Built” is now a full service Bed and Breakfast, furniture refinishing and all-natural soap and body products shop owned by sole-entrepreneur, Fawn Purnell, a long-time resident of St. Pierre Jolys. The House That Love Built is the former childhood home of Manitoba Jazz musician, composer and instructor, Larry Roy – Winnipeg’s first-call jazz guitarist. It’s history is colourful; Madam Roy (Larry’s mom) taught piano to many local children while Larry was growing up and people still remember the exact location of her piano, in later years, Monsieur Roy opened his home to men in need of a warm place to live, and had several “interesting” renovations by later owners that included flying dragons on the ceiling and treasure chest-like medallions on the walls.
