On October 21, the Prescott-Russell Residence recently received a donation of a turn-of-the-century Mason & Risch piano. This gift was delivered to the residence on behalf of the family of Allison and Agnes Leduc, of Vankleek Hill, and will be housed in its second-floor chapel to ensure residents can continue to enjoy its music for many years to come. In the photo, from left to right, are Louise Lalonde, Administrator of the Prescott-Russell Residence; Allison Leduc, donor of the piano; Gary J. Barton, Mayor of Champlain Township and Chair of the Prescott-Russell Residence Committee; and Stéphane P. Parisien, Chief Administrative Officer of the United Counties of Prescott and Russell. In the additional photos, Mr. Leduc, age 99, poses in front of his cherished piano and also plays a song for Mayor Barton.
