An Act of Remembrance

The service of remembrance went well, as usual.

After a brief greeting from Canon Adderly, an invocation by Rev. Mrs. Candy was given, followed by the singing of "Eternal Father, strong to save" and "O Canada". "The Last Post" was sounded, followed by two minutes of silence at the 11th hour of the day, the pipes playing "The Flowers of the Forest" and a bugle playing "Reveille". After the laying of wreaths, all that remained was for Canon Adderly to lead "The Act of Remembrance."

They shall grow not old,

as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them,

nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun

and in the morning

We will remember them.

to which all responded,

We will remember them.

And we shall; we must.

Later, Mushers!
