The Remembrance Day Service to honour those who have served was held in Sheenboro on Sunday, Nov. 9. The soldier honoured this year was Warrant Officer Todd Konschuk of Petawawa, Ont. He is also the son-in-law of Larry and Nancy Gleason. My closing remarks consisted of a short essay that Mollie McGuire of St Joseph’s, Allumette Island wrote back in 2001 for The Royal Canadian Legion “What Remembrance Day Means to Me”. At the time she was working as a  student with me at Moncion Grocers in Pembroke, Ont.
