In the early 1960's, George Archer built a stone memorial cairn and flag staff to mark the Veterans' Field of Remembrance at the Capilano View Cemetery. In 1970, the Ladies Auxiliary donated a bronze plaque for the cairn. In 1995, the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 60 appointed a committee to repair and update the memorial cairn. The final design was created by Pechet and Robb Studio Ltd. The design included reinstalling the bronze plaque from the original cairn.
