Residents of one of Burnaby's larger seniors care homes witnessed a touching tribute to Canadian military members prior to the Remembrance Day long weekend.
The George Derby Centre — located at 7550 Cumberland St. — hosted a candlelight ceremony for war veterans on Friday afternoon, Nov. 8.
The event included old Canadian military vehicles as well as a field of 5,000 handmade poppies.
A Bugle Major and bagpipes led the local procession, which consisted of 25 community leaders in attendance such as the Honorary Consul of Belgium and a representative of the French Consulate.
