Letter: Thanks to community for Nov. 11 participation
Al Howse, president of Royal Canadian Legion Branch 124, gives thanks to all those who participated in and atte DAVE VAN DE LAAR

Dear editor:

The General Nelles Branch 124 of the Royal Canadian Legion would like to once again thank the many people throughout the community that assisted, took part in and attended the Remembrance Day services on Nov. 11.

We had a mix-up with the list of wreaths and some families were not properly recognized. We sincerely apologize for the mix-up, as we know this is an emotional and personal time for them.

We thank those who read passages and a poem.

We want to thank the town staff who had the area blocked off, the chairs set up and all the small things you don’t notice.

We thank Switzer-Carty Transportation for the free use of a bus.

The sound system provided by Scott Davidson and Christie Hails worked to perfection.

St. Michael Catholic Elementary School’s Grade 7 history class attended.

The weather was good and we hope we did the veterans proud.

On behalf of our members,

Al Howse
Branch 124 president
