HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SWEET GWEN!!!

always willing to be helpful and polite to everyone.. you can often see her posts in the Library, Recipe, and Canine rooms..
if you see her today be sure to wish her
Happy Birthday!!!

Sweet Gwen is indeed helpful and polite....she also has a sweetly wicked sense of humor that comes out when one least expects it. This lady is truly one of a kind; ready to whip up a dish for the recipe room, recommend a good book, share her experiences in the animal companion room....or swing from the rigging in a pirate's ship. She does it all and does it with a smile. Happy Happy Birthday to SweetGwen!

On REMEMBRANCE DAY members of the armed forces (soldiers, sailors and airmen) are commemorated. The other common name for this day is Armistice Day which marks the date and time when armies stopped fighting World War I. on November 11th at 11am in 1918 (the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month). Some 100,000 Canadian soldiers died in the First and Second World Wars.

In Canada, Remembrance Day is a federal statutory holiday - with a notable exception of NS, NWT, ON and QC - as it is in many other countries in the world where this day is observed on the national level.

All government buildings fly the Canadian flag this day and people remember those who fought for Canada during a two minute silence at 11am. Many people wear poppies before and on Remembrance Day to show their respect and support for Canadian troops. Poppies are generally handed out free but often a voluntary donation is given in exchange.

In the United States this day is called Veteran's Day and is also observed on November 11.

Date When Observed: November 11th

VETERANS DAY honors all members of the Armed Forces who who served this country valiantly, and in a very big way. They served and fought to protect us, to keep our country safe, and to preserve our way of life. Veterans gave their time, and risked their lives for you and me. In some cases, they made the ultimate sacrifice.

This holiday originally was called Armistice Day and was first celebrated in 1921. In 1954, President Eisenhower changed it to Veteran's Day, in honor of those who served and died from all wars.

On November 11 at 11:11, 1921 the U.S. France and England each buried an unknown soldier in honor of those who died in World War I. This began the annual Armistice Day holiday. The time and day was picked because fighting ceased in WWI in 1918 on November 11 at 11:11. In keeping with this tradition, work stops on this day and time each year for a moment of silence.
