Hi.
EVERYONE: Mr. Gerald F. Holm Provincial Toponymist Manitoba Geographical Names Program Manitoba Conservation 1007 Century Street Winnipeg, Manitoba R3H 0W4 Fax: (204) 945-1365 Email: GHolm@gov.mb.ca There are still many many families and next of kin that these people (above) are trying to locate in order to tell them that their `Fallen Soldier' relative that has been honoured by having Lakes and Rivers named after them in honour of their service and memory. There is a CERTIFICATE to be presented to the next of kin of all of these men. If you, or someone you know, has lost a relative to war, please get in touch with the man/address/email listed above so that the next of kin can be informed and given this certificate. If the man above only deals with those Soldiers of Manitoba, then I'm sure he can direct relatives to the correct people to find out if their relatives also were so honoured. Please...pass this info on! PS: I'm the only relative of my Uncle who Mr Holm has had contact with so far. If I am not eligible as next of kin (I have an elder sister and two elder cousins...who is oldest, I don't know) Mr Holm was VERY glad to hear from me...as he will be to hear from anyone else he's been trying to locate. Take care...and to all those out there who have, or, will have, loved ones serve this time round... my prayers and heart go with you all that you return home to your families. Prayer can never hurt and always helps, even in the simple positiveness of feeling. Its felt... and thats a good thing. Eh? |
