I was in charge of the ceremonial proceedings during the service on behalf of the Royal Canadian Legion, Outlook Branch as their "Sergeant at Arms", I have enclosed a few photo's prior to the ceremony.

In September my wife and I moved approx 200 miles north of the town of Outlook to village of Ridgedale where Shirley was born. This move was brought on by our wanting to be nearer to relations and friends due to our ongoing health problems.

Mark Verwimp - promoted to Commissioner with the position of Troop Commandant as from 2nd August.
