It is with a heavy heart that I share on behalf of the family, the loss of David Burns this morning surround by family. A beloved husband to Sandi (1963-2026) Father, grandfather, Brother, friend and Scouter of more than 46 years, who has recently Gone Home.
For over 45 years, David was a dedicated and active member of Scouting in Tri Shores Council. Throughout his remarkable service, he was a Troop Scouter, Trainer, Service Scouter, Rappel Master with the Dorchester Rappel Team, and most recently, Group Commissioner. He also attended several Canadian Jamborees, serving either as a Scouter or as an Officer of Service.
David's legacy lives on in the countless youth he encouraged, challenged, and inspired—even if, at times, that encouragement involved stepping off a cliff! (As the Rappel Master, he always made sure it was done safely.)
His unwavering commitment, sense of adventure, and passion for Scouting touched generations of youth and fellow Scouters alike. He will be remembered not only for the many roles he held, but for the kindness, leadership, and enthusiasm he brought to each one.
We extend our deepest condolences to David's family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. Thank you, David, for your years of service, your friendship, and the lasting impact you made. You will always be a part of our Scouting story. Visitation will be Friday 6-8 at Westview Funeral Chapel. The funeral service will be Saturday at 11 at St.Aiden’s More details to follow.

We would like to bring to your attention the fantastic gift that 1st Strathroy Scouts was presented with recently.

The Canada 911 Ride Foundation makes an annual donation to support the families of fallen first responders. Last year, because there was no family in need of assistance, the Foundation donated an AED to the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police to be given to a charity of its choosing. Mark Campbell, Chief of Police for Strathroy-Caradoc Police Service and current director of the OACP, selected the 1st Strathroy Scouts as the recipient of this donation.
The 1st Strathroy Scouts are deeply rooted in the community, with more than 150 youth members and adult volunteers representing a broad cross-section of local families. With Scout sections meeting throughout the week, members may be at the Scout House or taking part in activities across the region. Having a portable AED provides an added layer of safety, ensuring a life-saving device can be available wherever Scouts are volunteering, hiking, or camping.
This donation was made possible through the support of the Mikey Network, an organization dedicated to placing publicly accessible defibrillators in communities and providing education that helps save lives during sudden cardiac emergencies. Their contribution, along with the strong partnership between the Scouts, the local police service, and the Canada 911 Ride Foundation, will help keep our members safer during all of their adventures.
The presentation took place today at the Police Services Board Meeting in Strathroy. Present were Chief Mark Campbell, Chief Jeff McGuire, Scouter Lauren Monteith, Scouter Ken Dunsmore, Scouter Richard McCammon, Scouter Ian Johnston, Scouter, Chris Cornelis, Scouter Leo Verberne, Scouter Abby Neumann, Scout Max Neumann, Scout Porter Teall-Cornelis, and Cub Oliver Neumann.

Yours in Scouting,
Lauren
