Every year National Steelcar's owner has a Remembrance Day service. It is something they take very seriously. The company had lost 84 men and woman during WW1 and WW2, and he makes it a priority to remember them.
Captain Jordan Spoelstra from the Royal Hamilton Light Infantry. He laid this wreath at the cenotaph, and this year Paul was asked to lay the wreath from his Engineering dept.
The Wreath below was the one Paul laid, in honor of all those lost in war. Fighting for our rights and freedom. Paul was very happy to have had this very significant role.
Here is the program, Steelcar certainly puts on a service. Well done, what a wonderful Canadian company who respects and cherishes the fallen soldiers that once help build this company. I admire the owner's dedication to Canadian history. The page on the left shows a poem written by a girl of 10 years old. Her name is Erika Ehrenberg from Ancaster, Ontario. Beautiful poem so eloquently written by such a young girl.
Nathan Cirillo was the young man and soldier who was shot and killed outside of Parliament in Ottawa last year. One of the saddest, tragic events in Canadian history. What a lovely tribute to a Canadian hero.
The names of each soldier killed in the wars, each one of them worked at National Steelcar. Again, I think it is amazing how this company sheds light and remembers the workers they lost.

Well my lovelies, tonight I hope you have given thoughts and prayers for all those who served, died and fought in the wars that eventually gave us our freedom. Wishing each one of you love, peace and happiness tonight and for always~ xo
That is so awesome that they hold a ceremony every year. And what an honor for Paul to be part of it.
