Guy Lombardo Museum
From the mid-1980s until 2007, there was a museum dedicated to Guy Lombardo in London, Ontario, near the intersection of Wonderland Road and Springbank Drive. In September 2007, due to the lack of museum visitors and funding, the museum was closed. Although the city owned many of the exhibits, most of the collection can be found at the private home of former part-time curator Douglas Flood. City staff have recommended that the museum not be reopened. The building has been converted into a community rec centre as of 2010.

And you, you can sit here and feel sorry for yourself, or you can come on out with me and see how nice people are when they’re alive.”
