8 CEMETERY HEADSTONE PROJECT The Conklin Metis Local #193 has graciously approved the proposal to begin a project of getting a head stone for each of our dearly departed members resting at the St. Vincent Cemetery. This project will take approximately three to four years to complete as there are many steps to take to ensure information gathered is accurate. I would like to ask all family members that are interested in participating in the program to provide the following information as soon as possible; Identify unmarked grave site(s) with name & location Provide a copy of death certificate We will complete 20 head stones per year until the project is complete. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this project please call Wendy Tremblay at (780) I would like to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to the Conklin Metis Local #193 for your assistance in providing the funding for the very important project. THANK YOU. Your input is valuable, and will not go ahead without family permission and confirmation of information. 8
