Thanks, folks, for taking time
to REMEMBER. Branch 540's
attendance at the Annual
Remembrance Church Parade,

membership was on parade.
Thanks also to our non-veteran
friends who also took time to
REMEMBER and attended the
wreath laying ceremony at the
Lucan Cenotaph following their
church service. If all communities
report attendance like Lucan we
will all be able to rejoice that in
truth "AT THE GOING DOWN

• MORNING WE WILL
REMEMBER,. THEM." Our

McGraw for his kindness in
offering his Church facilities for
our service and for his attendance
at the Cenotaph services,

thanks to all those who attended
their REMEMBRANCE Parade
