Dear Friends,
After many wonderful years, it’s time for us to set sail on our new adventure—retirement! While it’s bittersweet to say goodbye to The Prairie Lily and all of you, we’re filled with gratitude for all the laughter, support, celebrations, and memories we’ve shared along the way.
We want to say a special thanks to our friends, guests, and crew who stood by us during this difficult time when the sandbars were too high for The Lily to cruise. Your words of encouragement, letters of support to government officials and decision-makers, and your generosity when you joined us for a meal, brunch, or an afternoon drink—all without a cruise—were deeply moving. You continually reminded us what true community really is. A big, heartfelt thank you to all of you.
It’s been an honour to serve Saskatoon and Saskatchewan and get to know so many of you and your families. It’s hard to put into words just how much this experience has meant to us. Your kindness, loyalty, and encouragement have meant more than words can say. It’s been a privilege to be a part of your lives.
We look forward to seeing you around Saskatoon, in particular at the local businesses we partnered with over the years: Flavours and Smiley’s, 9 Mile Legacy Brewing, The Jazz and Fireworks Festivals, Co-op Liquor, Wonderhub, Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan, or just out and about enjoying life along the Meewasin Valley.
Thank you for being such a special part of our lives. We wish all of you much happiness, good health, laughter, love, and success.
