Congratulations Dave and again you have made us proud.

Dave has been one of the most dedicated performers that have graced our stages over the years.  Dave alone or with his bandmates has provided wonderful performances to the delight of many audiences over the years.  We thank them all for their dedication.  Dave has never said no when he has been asked to help out to provide his talent whenever we have asked him and this has helped keep the Hank Snow Home Town Museum and Country Music Centre alive.

Dave and Dixie also had the opportunity to travel to the Opry and around Nashville.  They also surprised Dixie’s sister by visiting her and her family in Arizona.   Looking forward to seeing you home in Nova Scotia.
