Location:  Muskoka District  N 45 14.853  W 078 53.531
Found in a small park, on the east side of Highway 35, great place to stop for a picnic.
This location was originally posted in November 2012, but due to photo storage issues is being re-done.

This memorial consists of a metal plaque, mounted on a large piece of local Canadian Shield stone.  The setting is in a pretty park beside the lake, great spot to relax and remember.
