The cenotaph was designed by Jack Pryde and erected in the Library park just in time for the Remembrance Day service of 1965. It is made of white granite, 16 feet long and five feet thick at the base. The center column is 11 feet, six inches from the round to the top and the column is one foot thick.
This small parkette contains a beautiful garden and walkway, leading to the white granite memorial. Clinton was once home to CFB Clinton, the first Radar Training School in North America.
The cost of the cenotaph was between $4,500 to $5,000. The concrete footing was extra and volunteers came forward to help with a lot of that work.
