🕺 May I have this dance?

Seventy-four years ago, a young Englishman named Kevin Topham went out dancing at a local Newark dance hall called The Corn Exchange.

It was that night the Royal Air Force veteran would meet the love of his life, Molly. The couple was married three years later – and stayed together for over 60 years until Molly's passing in 2018. 

❤️ Memories never die... Kevin never forgot the moment he saw Molly for the first time on that dance floor. While The Corn Exchange closed down decades ago, he recently found out the club was reopening as Club X – and all he wanted to do was dance. 

  • Kevin asked his caregiver Donna Harvey if she would accompany him. After chatting with the Club X managers, the duo was given the honor of having the very first dance in the new venue. 
  • 'It was just so humbling and it melted my heart, because it made him happy," said Donna of the special moment. "He hasn't stopped talking about it."
