On 24 June 1917 a ceremony was held at The Church of the Good Shepherd to unveil an illuminated memorial roll in the Memorial Hall of the church. Designed and executed by artist Miss Marjorie Farncomb of Riverdale, the Memorial Roll listed the names of nine parishioners who were killed in the First World War.
