A Walk of Remembrance at Delmanor Glen Abbey

Remembering the sacrifices, the pain and the loved ones lost.   Delmanor Glen Abbey residents shared treasured war memorabilia through a devoted "Walk of Remembrance" table.

The Glen Abbey seniors and veterans shared photos, uniform pieces, books, medals and other meaningful items as a way to reflect, honour and reminisce. 


To honour the Veterans at Delmanor Glen Abbey, the culinary team prepared a delicious lunch as a tribute and to say thank you.  The lunch provided a wonderful opportunity for the residents to share stories and memories.

 The common thread between all of the seniors at Delmanor Glen Abbey is personal experience.  Whether they served in war personally or not, everyone felt the repercussions of war, either directly, through family and friends, or living through the time of war.  Having friends to share stories and experiences with further keeps the memories alive, and what a treasury of memories they are!

Following the Remembrance Lunch, the veterans gathered in front of the "Walk of Remembrance" table for a special photo opportunity. 


On behalf of everyone at Delmanor Glen Abbey, we salute our veterans.
