Lest We Forget

The Macoun graduating class of 1964 honored the local World War II veterans by getting a plaque made with all their names on it. This plaque will be mounted on a permanent cairn that will be built on main street of Macoun. 73 people from Macoun served with four losing their lives. There are only 4 still living in the Macoun area-Carl Snyder, Oscar Schindel, Paul Schindel and Bill Eagles (missing from photo). A short program was held in Macoun with the unveiling of the plaque. Thanks to all those who sacrificed so that we may live in peace.
