This graphic I designed for Remembrance Day last year is significant for it shows the grave stone belonging to my husband's uncle who died in World War 2 overseas and the Canadian cemetery of other soldiers lost. Many souls were lost , of all nationalities, we all suffered.
We shall always Remember them.........

Remembrance Day Ceremonies in North Gower and Merrickville Ontario Canada
Our town Memorial
Escorted by OPP The Merrickville Remembrance Day Parade got started under a cool and sunny November sky
An original of ww2 (eldest) veteran standing to the left of this image wearing dark sunglasses. I wouldn't have known it until they mentioned him in the laying of the wreaths. He stood straight as an arrow accompanied by a lovely smile. Very nice fellow as I'm sure they all are.
These Little Crosses were made by the children from the Merrickville school.
They reminded me of a miniature version of the cemetery in Flanders.
p.s.
After knee surgery last Spring I'm afraid with the cold damp weather my arthritis isn't very cooperative and had one heck of a time trying to get up from my lying position I had taken to photograph these crosses.If only my pants could talk....I now have two Brownie knees...haha!
