ST. STEPHEN MEMORIAL STATUE

Early in 1923 consideration was given to erect a suitable monument in memory of those who paid the supreme sacrifice. On 20 June 1926 the monument was unveiled. There were about 130 men who had been through the conflict in attendance. The monument was designed by Miss Frances Loring from Toronto, Ontario. The monument is made of grey granite with bronze plaques bearing the names of the soldiers. The statue of the soldier on top is made of bronze. Sometime after 1953 an addition was added to the monument listing the names of those who gave their lives in the Second World War and noting Korea.
