The Morewood Cenotaph Committee honored their fallen on the 100th anniversary of the original unveiling of the cenotaph - July 6, 2021, by installing 21 mini-monuments - ten along each side - one for each of those who had given their lives, and one by itself at the back representing all who returned. A portrait of William Ellis Durant is etched into his memorial. He stood 5 foot, 5 inches, had brown hair and blue eyes. He had a small scar on his right index finger. His occupation before the war was School Teacher.
The day of his death he was leading his squadron over the Ypres front when he was attacked by two German planes which came down from above a cloud. He was shot through the head and fell near Battery Corner.
The 20 pillars representing individual soldiers are in alphabetic order. The 21st pillar sits in the shadow of the cenotaph and between the two rows.
