Everyone wears a poppy. We observe the one minute of silence. Our Uncle Leo was once honored to be flown to Ottawa to lay a wreath at the national cenotaph, and once to be flown to Flanders Field, to represent the Canadian soldiers who had fought in WWII. That really tore him up...brought back all kinds of memories...but in the US...not so much. But the Canadian club held a service this morning; only Eric forgot to tell me about it! But he went.Myrnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06450610418971329885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926741499062285039.post-36223606271046828582009-11-11T22:58:07.486+01:002009-11-11T22:58:07.486+01:00Wonderful post.
