For Remembrance Day 2020 we would like to invite you to join us in honouring our veterans. We feel that a significant amount of people have been directly impacted by those who gave their time, and in some cases their lives, for our freedom. We would like to acknowledge the courage and sacrifice of those who served their country, some of whom may have been our grandparents, or close relatives.
