Youngstown War Memorial

The Youngstown War Memorial was dedicated November 10th, 1999 in memory of all those who served in the Boer War (1899-1902), First World War (1914-1918), Second World War (1939-1945), the Korean War (1950-1953), and all Peace Keeping operations. The Memorial was planned and paid for by the Youngstown Cemetery Association, which is funded primarily by private donations. Remco Memorials did the construction and installation at cost, and Dale Crowle and Gladdish Construction, who prepared the concrete base, also made a generous donation to the Youngstown Cemetery Association. Excerpt from the Oyen Echo, November 16, 1999: Members of the Hanna Royal Canadian Legion #25 and guests from the Oyen Branch #208, students and staff of the Youngstown School and community members gathered for the dedication of the war memorial at the Youngstown Cemetery.
