Welcome Home - In Memory of the Crew of the Bonnie Lou II

This picture was taken on March 8, 2008; a very rainy foggy day in Sambro, NS. This was fitting weather for a small fishing community remembering their five friends, neighbours and family members lost at sea 20 years ago. On March 8th, 1988 the fishing boat “Bonnie Lou II” was lost at sea and the five fisherman on board were never found.

Had the men survived the storm the sight of this lighthouse, which stands at the entrance to Sambro, would have welcomed them home.

    The gloominess of the day this was taken was appropriate for the anniversary of such a sad event.
