David L. Thomas
Parry Sound, ON
Over thirty years, David Thomas compiled thousands of photographs and family stories to document and preserve Parry Sound's history. With his collection, he traveled to schools, community gatherings and seniors' residences to share the town's story. David Thomas's work is now part of the community's identity, and has been a linch-pin of heritage preservation efforts in the region. (SHORT CITATION APPROVED BY DDM 21Oct2013)
