Remembrance Day was snowy, windy, and cold this year. While the weather wasn’t too out of the ordinary for mid- November in Saskatchewan, it certainly was a different Nov. 11 than years past. A small service attended by 8 people was held at the Spiritwood Legion Hall on Nov. 11 this year, to honour and re- member the sacrifices made by the Ca- nadian armed forces in past wars and current peacekeeping operations. The service, which normally would have been held at the Catholic Church to ac- commodate the turnout, was sparsely attended, as Health Canada encouraged citizens to avoid gatherings this year due to the ongoing pandemic. Delores Beaulac of Beau “Lac” Funer- al Home led the service, which started with the playing of the Last Post and Reveille. Three members and associ- ates, Jack Boechler, Carol Brisbane, and Betty Hall, from the Spiritwood Legion were in attendance. The Legion had placed wreaths out- side at the Hall at the Cenotaph, so that people could come and pay their re- spects in a socially distanced manner throughout the week. Many members of the community did just this, with some Some members and associates of the Spiritwood Legion held a small service of 8 people at the Spiritwood bringing their own wreaths along with Legion Hall on Nov. 11. them. “We all ‘REMEMBER’. It’s our own way of doing our part to remember to- day,” said Denise Henderson, who laid a wreath at the Cenotaph for her Uncle Doug Wasden with her mother Rober- ta Wasden. Denise said that while the wreath was only at the cenotaph for a brief minute, her mother had it up in front of her house. Denise noted seeing other members of the community celebrating in a similar manner that day. Students of Spiritwood High School Grade 9 Class had painted stones with images of poppies, white crosses, and other symbols that usually mark the day. These were placed around the base of the cenotaph and were popular photo subjects throughout the week. There were also many businesses and community members who donated to the poppy fund or purchased wreaths for the occasion.
