This memorial wall was painted by Kim Daniels for the Royal Canadian Legion. Completed in 1999 it depicts the three service branches.

This memorial was erected on behalf of the local Royal Canadian Legion and dedicated to those who served in the First and Second World Wars and the Korean War.

This display of individual and unit portraits is dedicated to the local war dead of the Second World War.

Erected in 1992 on behalf of the local Royal Canadian Legion branch, this memorial is dedicated to the local war dead of the First and Second World Wars. The small concrete walls flanking the central stele depict military images of an aircraft, a warship, a tank and soldiers.

This memorial was erected on behalf of the citizens of Coleman and is dedicated to the local war dead of the First and Second World Wars and the Korean War.

In approximately 1924 this memorial was erected on behalf of the local branch of the Imperial Order of the Daughters of the Empire (I.O.D.E.) and dedicated to the local war dead of the First World War. Inscriptions were later added to honour the local veterans of the Second World War and the Korean War and, in October 1986, the stele was relocated from a location near the old municipal courthouse to its current location.

In the summer 1945, a motion was passed that would lead to the establishment of the Warner Memorial Library. A committee solicited the help of the community who responded enthusiastically. In 1945, the library was incorporated and throughout 1946, money and books were donated. The Elks Club made the ladies' cloak room in their hall available to house the 650 donated books and on March 29, 1947, the library was operating.

The Warner Lions Club planned for a permanent library building and purchased an Air Force building from the Canadian Forces Base in Lethbridge. With volunteer help, the building was torn down and set up on a donated lot. The Warner Memorial Library was officially opened January 16, 1951 as a memorial to those men and women who were the builders of the community and to those who served their country in the wars.

Shortly after the death of Albert Mountain Horse, his older brothers Mike and Joe enlisted in the First World War. Albert had died one day after his return to Canada on 19 November 1915. He was hospitalized because of gas poisoning and, with acute respiratory distress, contracted tuberculosis.

Mike was buried alive for four days at Cambrai in October 1917, for which he was hospitalized for shell shock. He returned to action, was wounded twice, became a sergeant and won the Distinguished Conduct Medal for bravery.

Mike Mountain Horse Elementary School was named in honour of Mike in 1986.

The Fallen Heroes Memorial Walkway project allows us to better commemorate their sacrifice and beautify the museum grounds. The Museum is a vital component of our Main Street and by enhancing our municipal facilities, we enhance the perception and viability of the Raymond commercial district! The project includes redeveloping the Museum grounds. Black wrought iron fences will wrap around the perimeter and LED lighting will be strategically placed to highlight the individual veterans monuments, the Wall of Honour which will list the names of all of Raymond’s daughters and sons who have and are currently serving in the armed forces and our own “Tomb of the Unknown Soldier” where poppies can be placed to remember those who now live in Raymond but had relatives serve from other parts of Canada. Four lite flag poles flying the Canadian Flag, the Canadian Red Ensign, as well as the Alberta and Raymond flags. Irrigation will be installed along with new sod, decorative rock or chips, plants and shrubs will be placed around each monument along the walkway, a gazeebo with benches and picnic tables will be located in the “Serenity Garden” behind the museum along with a water feature of some kind.

The 425 Squadron memorial was erected in 2017 to celebrate their 75th anniversary.
