Our members are part of a national network of almost a quarter of a million people who believe supporting our Veterans and their families, strengthening our communities, and promoting Remembrance are fundamental to being Canadian and living in a free society.
Throughout the year, we receive stories and photos of Legion members working hard to support Veterans and the Legion. We are proud to share these stories and to recognize the dedication and commitment of our amazing volunteers.

Dave and Cindy Joyce have been dedicated volunteers and leaders at the Lynn Valley Legion for many years, giving countless hours to support the branch and its members. Dave, currently serving as First Vice President, chairs the Donations Committee and the Bar Committee, and actively contributes to the House & Grounds and Bursary Committees. Cindy, the Legion’s Sergeant-at-Arms, chairs the House & Grounds Committee and supports event planning, gardening projects and donation efforts.
Together, Dave and Cindy are a driving force behind the Legion’s popular Friday Meat Draws and 50/50 Draws, helping to create a welcoming and lively atmosphere each week. Their leadership, teamwork, and commitment have strengthened the Lynn Valley Legion and continue to inspire a spirit of community and service.
Keith Willett has been a dedicated volunteer and Executive member at the Lynn Valley Legion for over two decades. In recognition of his many years of outstanding service, leadership and volunteerism, Keith was awarded a Life Membership — one of the highest honours a Legion member can receive.
Over the years, Keith has served the branch in many capacities, including holding various Executive positions and contributing to numerous committees. His leadership, guidance and steady presence have helped strengthen the Legion's ability to serve its members and the broader community. As the Legion’s Service Officer, Keith has led the Sick & Visiting program with deep compassion and care. He ensures that members who are ill, recovering, or absent are never forgotten, delivering flowers, cards, phone calls, and personal visits to offer support and connection.
Keith’s contributions are often quiet and behind the scenes, but their impact is profound. Through his consistency, care, and tireless service, Keith exemplifies the spirit of the Royal Canadian Legion and the enduring strength of community.
