Richard LYONS,
Elder and Dancer: 1925-2005
Ojibwa leader who was born off the reserve came late to Couchiching
traditions but made up for lost time by becoming a cultural authority
By Stephanie
MacLELLAN,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Monday,
May 2, 2005, Page S9
Thunder
Bay,
Ontario -- In the years before Richard
LYONS learned
to dance, Ojibwa culture in northwestern Ontario was quietly
slipping its way towards extinction. The era of residential schools
had left First Nations communities with fragmented cultural traditions.
The sacred ceremonies that had lasted hundreds of years were
furtive at best, but more often, absent altogether.
"It wasn't cool to be native back then," said Mark
SAULT, a director
at Seven Generations Education Institute and a long-time friend.
"We were being civilized into society."
Richard LYONS was born not on a reserve but in Fort Frances,
Ontario, where his father worked as an interpreter for the Department
of Indian Affairs. He was a member of the Couchiching First Nation
but lived in town and was educated at Catholic schools. Growing
up, being native was only something that got him picked on at
school.
At 18, Mr.
LYONS joined the Canadian Army and was stationed at
Camp
Shilo,
Manitoba While home on leave, he met Marjorie
SPEAKER
in a Chinese food restaurant. The two married after he left the
army in 1946 and Marjorie soon took him to see her reserve.
Traditional culture was thriving in Manitou Rapids First Nation,
now a part of the Rainy River First Nations, a small community
about 30 kilometres west of Fort Frances. In contrast to other
communities, powwows and spiritual ceremonies were common. From
the first moment he saw the dancing and heard the drumbeats,
Mr. LYONS was captivated. It didn't take long for him to join
in, dancing in his street clothes among the colourful, hand-crafted
costumes of others. "It just came natural," Mrs.
LYONS recalled.
"He just felt like he had to be dancing."
Mr. LYONS spent time with the elders of Manitou Rapids, learning
the dance steps, the songs, the story that each dance told. At
first it was grass dancing, a freestyle named for the way the
wind blew across a field of grass, but later he moved to a traditional
style based on war dances. Even as he was learning, he knew he
wanted to pass on what he'd been taught.
"I think he felt that it needed to be shared, not only amongst
our own people, but it needed to be shared with non-native people
to enrich everyone," said his youngest daughter, Kathy
BECK.
"He wasn't political about it, and he didn't have any motives
in it, other than sharing it."
In the late 1950s, Mr.
LYONS moved to Thunder Bay to take a job
as a lumber grader in a sawmill and he started giving demonstrations
at the newly constructed Thunder Bay Indian Friendship Centre.
Since no one else knew the music, he'd go to gatherings with
a tape recorder. Later, when he performed, he danced alone to
the fuzzy recordings of drumming and chanting.
"He was in his own world when he danced," Mr.
SAULT said. "He
just wanted to show that it is still alive. He wanted to share
it."
Mr. LYONS was especially concerned with sharing his new knowledge
with younger generations. Like today, children from remote, Northern
Ontario communities would come to Thunder Bay to attend high
school. Mr.
LYONS resolved that they never forget their culture,
as he had done. Instead, he performed for them and gave talks
at local schools to explain what the dances meant.
He also started teaching dance at the Friendship centre. Johnny
PIERRE was a teenager, struggling with the temptations of drugs
and alcohol, when he became one of Mr.
LYONS' first students.
"For me, he gave me a sense of belonging," Mr.
PIERRE said. "He
showed me a different way of living."
He also made the youngsters stumbling through strange steps feel
at ease. "He was a very patient person."
Mr. LYONS taught dance nearly every night he wasn't working.
Whenever he could, he travelled with his wife and their four
children to gatherings in faraway communities in Ontario and
the United States. He'd often drive all night and make it back
home in time to work his next shift at the sawmill.
"When he first started, he wasn't planning on doing this," Ms.
BECK said. "Then when people started asking him to do performances
and teachings, he just started getting more and more requests.
He began to see that this is perhaps a calling."
In the end, Mr.
LYONS left his job at the sawmill to devote more
time to teaching and performing. He also became cultural co-ordinator
at the Indian Friendship Centre.
In 1972, he founded the Dick Lyons Dance Troupe. Over the next
16 years, it steadily grew, touring North America and Europe
and performing at schools and cultural events. First Nations
drum-and-dance groups sprang up in their wake. "There was a big
turnaround," Mr.
PIERRE said. "I think he bridged a big gap in
the community."
When the Queen visited Thunder Bay in 1973, the Fort William
First
Nation asked Mr.
LYONS to organize a performance at Mount
McKay scenic lookout. That single event turned into a large annual
powwow that now occurs every Canada Day.
All the same, bringing hope to the community was just as important
to him as bringing them his dancing. Mr.
LYONS was a spiritual
adviser to aboriginal inmates at Thunder Bay District Jail. He
was also a founding elder of Dilico Ojibway Child and Family
Services. "He addressed the region from all levels," said Jerry
WOODS, who still works at Dilico. "Right from the children's
level to sitting at the table with the board of directors, advising
us of the traditions and culture."
Ms. BECK remembers him sitting at the kitchen table until 3 a.m.
with chiefs and elders, trying to learn everything he could about
legends and spirituality. "It wasn't just dancing and singing,
the entertainment of it," she said. "There was a lot more depth
than that."
In the foothills of the Norwester Mountains, south of Thunder
Bay, sits an improbable outdoor shrine to the Virgin Mary. Richard
LYONS used to make the trek out into the bush to pray there,
climbing off the beaten path to reach the statue. But it was
never the typical series of rosary recitations, even though he
was raised Catholic. He'd offer tobacco, and meditate in the
spirit of the outdoors, honouring the Native spirituality he
found later in life.
Many people credit Mr.
LYONS with restoring Native culture and
spirituality to prominence in northwestern Ontario. But it was
never at the expense of Christianity, the region's more established
religion. "He didn't make a distinction between the two," Ms.
BECK said. "To him it was all one."
Mr. LYONS, who in 2002 was named a member of the Order of Canada,
was often asked to address graduations and other gatherings but
knew better than to take himself too seriously. "Because he was
an elder, people used to expect him to have these profound statements,"
Ms. BECK said. "So he'd talk to them in a really profound way,
and then it would turn out to be a joke."
Mr. LYONS was also an elder in another dimension, too. Mr.
SAULT
and Mr. PIERRE both regarded him as a father figure and say that
many more felt the same way.
"There was an amazing number of people he spoke to over the years
that would come and ask him for advice," Ms.
BECK said. "He always
said, 'I don't know why they come to me... I don't have a magic
formula.' But for some reason, people really liked what he had
to say."
Mr. LYONS had already been battling cancer for about three years
when his son Brian died of complications from a heart condition
in the spring of 2004. On the day of the memorial service, he
was counselling other people.
"The culture is thriving in this area now, and I think that's
his main legacy," Ms.
BECK said. "At the same time, his legacy
as a person is that he touched so many people."
Richard LYONS was born in Fort Frances, Ontario, on January 10,
1925. He died of cancer on March 21, 2005, in Thunder Bay, Ontario
He was 80. He is survived by Marjorie, his wife of 59 years,
and by daughters Verna
LEGARDE and Kathy
BECK. He was predeceased
by sons Richard and Brian.
