On behalf of the dancers in the Square and Round Dance Federation of Nova Scotia, we send our condolences to the family and friends of Lionel. Our personal memories of Lionel and Shannon go back at least 35 years when they were among the enthusiastic dancers who welcomed us to Cape Breton during the planning for the second Provincial Festival held in 1985. During all these years they have been staunch supporters of square dancing in Nova Scotia, the Maritimes and at National Conventions across Canada. In recent years we added many more special memories while Lionel learned to call. Although, it is a sad time now, we are grateful for the many wonderful memories of the good times we shared.
With deepest sympathy,
Dottie and Gary Welch, Secretary SRDFNS
