Dearest Don, you will be dearly missed by the Swing Dynamite family and the Ottawa Swing scene at large. Your enthusiasm and love for the dance was contagious and soul-lifting. Thank you for all the smiles and the good energy you always brought to the dances. Thank you for being such a great supporter of the dance scene and of Swing Dynamite. Your continued support, advice and feedback was always very much appreciated. I hope you are happily dancing with Frankie Manning and all the other Lindy Hoppers in a beautiful ballroom just like the one you often told me you wanted for Ottawa. On behalf of Swing Dynamite, our thoughts and prayers are with your family and loved ones, today and always.
