The gentleman is David Lavers, clerk of session at West River, Durham, Nova Scotia. On the far right is Rev. Barb Fotheringham. The occasion is the 150th anniversary of continuous service, celebrated last May. And the three ladies in the centre have the distinction of having blessed West River with a combined service through its music program that exceeds its 150 years: Joy Robley has been in the choir for 55 years, Lois Maclean for 67 years, and Norma Wood, currently the organist for 50 years.
