Episode Notes
Saturday night we’re going to be Dancing with Laura.
Laura Ryan-Walsh passed away October 9 2017.
She was a teacher and a great Mother. From Newfoundland but spent most of her life in Calgary
Long-time listener to CKUA and Mulligan Stew.
Her daughters Erin, Megan, and their Father Adrian all were involved in this one-hour donation.
The Ryan and Walsh families will be listening in Calgary, St John’s, Florida, Dubai, and Grande Prairie.
Laura loved great music and she passed that love on to her family and friends.
The Stones, Cohen, Van, Otis, Aretha, Dylan, Neil Young, The Band, and the blues. We’ll play them all.
Old Crow Medicine Show
Including Wagon Wheel from Old Crow Medicine Show ..which for Laura’s birthday the family rewrote the lyrics to.
I’m told that in the final weeks of her life..she asked for and received a small radio beside her bed so she could listen to CKUA and The Stew.
Toward the end of her life when she could no longer walk, a nurse walking by her hospital room commented that she was always smiling.
Laura replied “You’ve got to smile if you can’t dance”
