Longview Link - Preserving Memories

You can honour the memory of a loved one and help to further beautify this pretty Foothills Village!


The winds, still no relief from the howling winds. Please make sure that everything is as secure as it can be to keep it from landing in the neighbour's yard! We've all been busy picking up shingles and other loose objects but one good thing to look at while going through all this... We're almost to mid January and that's got to make winter a little shorter.
MEMORIAL GARDEN BENCHES, TREES, ETC.
The Memorial Gardens Committee will be ordering a maximum of 6 benches and several trees to be located in Phase 2 of the project to be completed in 2012. We are offering these items to be dedicated to family members, etc. with a memorial naming plaque attached. The cost of the benches will be a maximum of $1,200.00 each, (prices may change). The tree prices will be dependent on the species to be purchased. If you are interested in the purchase of either item please contact Winnie Hayden at 403-558-3935 or Ivor McCorquindale at 403-558-3600. The process will be first come, first served if there are more applications than items available. The committee has also decided to purchase a bronze statue of a 1st World War soldier and if you wish to donate towards this purchase, estimated at $9,000.00, please make cheques payable to The Village of Longview with the words Memorial Gardens entered in the memo location. A picture of the statue has been posted on the Council Notice Board. All donators will be recognized on a plaque to be located in the Memorial Gardens.

Take care and stay grounded.
