MEMORIAL WALL PLAQUE<br />
St. Patrick’s Catholic High School is seeking help in finding<br />
information in their plan to create a memorial plaque to honour<br />
Catholic students that served in World War II and the Korean<br />
War. On our church bulletin boards is a poster with pictures<br />
taken from a 1945 Sarnia Observer newspaper <strong>of</strong> Sarnia’s<br />
fallen soldiers, along with a list <strong>of</strong> names <strong>of</strong> Separate School<br />
students that served in World War II. During that time the<br />
only Catholic Churches/Schools in Sarnia were Our Lady <strong>of</strong><br />
Mercy, St. Joseph and St. Patrick’s. Many <strong>of</strong> the names on the<br />
list have a last name and an initial, they would like to include<br />
their first names also, and if possible any photographs. If anyone<br />
has name information or would like to submit a photograph<br />
(they can scan the original and e-mail a copy <strong>of</strong> it in some digital<br />
format, such as a Tiff, or they can bring the photograph to<br />
St. Patrick’s High School where they will scan it there and<br />
return it). Please contact either Tom Slater at tom.slater@stclair.net<br />
