The Village of Fruitvale received a rock from the Waneta expansion project contractors, SNC Lavalin and ASL-JV, which Cecchini handpicked from the worksite to build the new cenotaph around.

The existing bronze attachments and plaques were cleaned, re-oxidized, sealed and mounted to the stone, which is surrounded by fresh greenery and two memorial benches.
