The Stirling cenotaph design was a combined effort between Mayor Trevor Lewington and Mr. Jim Mulock from Lethbridge Monumental Ltd. The cenotaph commemorates those who fell in both World Wars as well as recognizes those who served from our community and returned. It is the first cenotaph in the community and was dedicated and officially unveiled to the community on November 11, 2021.

The stone is a black granite sourced from India. The engraving was completed in Quebec with the final finishing and installation completed by Lethbridge Monumental Ltd.

This memorial, erected by Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 82, is dedicated to the local war dead of the First and Second World Wars. Plaques are also presented to commemorate the seventy-fifth anniversary of the province of Alberta (1905-80) and the seventieth anniversary of the founding of the town of Daysland (1907-77). A local stonesman who has immigrated to Daysland from Denmark after the Second World War, volunteered to do the construction with community assistance. Following the Zone Rally in October 1981, the flame was lit by Mayor Ron Damberger, the Cenotaph was unveiled and a dedication service was conducted. In June 2005 two thirty foot flagpoles were added.
