Lumby Cenotaph

A bronze plaque on one side of the memorial presents an Honour Roll commemorating those local citizens who paid the supreme sacrifice for their country in the First and Second World Wars. RCL 167 - John Kirchsteiger built the cenotaph in the later part of 1948. It stood in front of the Legion to the right of the front door, which faced east. In 1976 - 1978, when the Legion made preparations to enlarge the hall, the cenotaph was moved to the Community Park, where it presently sits and where the Remembrance Day Parade ends. Directions - Take Highway 6 east of Vernon to Lumby. In Lumby turn left at the four-way stop onto Shuswap Avenue. Two blocks down turn right onto Glencaird Street. The memorial is one block down on the left.
