Memorial to Cst. David Perry.
RCMP Honour Roll #95
This note and the photos were received from S/S/M John Buis, a friend from Burnaby Detachment
Dear Joe;
"My name is John Buis and I am the Executive NCO to the OIC of Burnaby Detachment.
I recently attended the graves of Cst. Thomas Agar and Cst. David Perry who were both killed in the line of duty (seperate incidents) and are buried in Burnaby, BC
I put together a group of eight members with our OIC Burnaby and the Detachment Chaplain and inspected both graves on September 24, 2010. The graves are in excellent condition.
We conducted a small, short ceremony including placing flowers on the grave markers, provided an overview of how the members were killed, a prayer by the chaplain and a moment of silence. The information sheets were laminated and left with the flowers at the grave site.
Joe; I'd appreciate if you would publish these memorable photographs and include them in your website database."
Yours truly,
John A. Buis, S/S/M
Executive NCO to the OIC
