Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

This tablet was erected in honour of Pilot Officer Robert Clements who died in the Second World War. It was placed in the Trinity United church in Montague by his parents and when that church was closed it was placed in the present Hillcrest United church. The Valleyfield Presbyterian Church became Valleyfield United Church in 1925, and the building was moved to Montague in 1971, when it merged with Trinity United, Montague, and was renamed Hillcrest United Church.
