CARNDUFF - In 2005, as Carnduff was preparing for its centennial anniversary, the Royal Canadian Legion's Carnduff branch decided to take the opportunity to honour local veterans, legion and auxiliary members who had passed away.

Two plaques were placed on the side of the cenotaph, which is located in Carnduff’s park. Since so many of the centennial activities happened in the park, it was believed that many people would take time to notice and reflect upon those who had served in the wars and at the legion.

This year marks Carnduff’s 120th birthday and a Homecoming 2025 is planned for the weekend of July 4-6 to mark the occasion. The legion believes it would be very appropriate to upgrade the plaques by adding and honouring the names of those who have passed on since the original ones were put up.

People can have a name added by contacting the legion.
