Lafleche, Saskatchewan
In 1955 the Royal Canadian Legion constructed a Cenotaph in memory of all the veterans who paid the surpreme sacrifice in the two World Wars.
In 1980 the Cenotaph was covered with flag stone, and in 1998 a new bronze plaque was installed bearing all the names of those who served and died in the two World Wars. A special dedication service for this plaque was held in October 1998. It was attended by relatives of those whose names appear on the plaque, members of the Legion and Ladies Auxiliary and the public. The service was led by the Legion President Lindsay Crooks and was dedicated by Rev. David Peebles.
