Happy 60th Wedding Anniversary Ray and Leonora Hopkins🥂
We couldn’t be happier for you! And your wonderful sons John and Mark who travelled from afar to celebrate your special day at the museum.
Leonora & Ray give so much to our community, and are valued members of the Stratford Perth Museum membership family. We wish you much happiness for the coming years together.
A big thank you to Trevor at Black Angus Bakery & Catering who put on a terrific spread. And... we’d be nowhere without our volunteers, Alisha & Linda, who assisted in making the event so special.

Amazing poster art Scott! Looking good Ron!

Amazing things begin with just one! One word begins a story. One note begins a melody. One person, no matter how big or small, can make a difference.
