Thank You Book 

For Our Veterans  

 

Hi.  My name is Kim Shergold and I live in Corbeil, Ontario, Canada.  I decided a while back that I wanted to do something for our Veterans, to show them that the Canadian Public and people across the world will never forget what they did to give us the freedom we enjoy today.

From that, came the idea of asking the public to send me their Thank You Letters to our Veterans, to be compiled into a book of war sketches, poems, photos and information of a Veteran you personally know, personal stories from our Veterans and their families, and also war bride stories.

I feel with the above combination, it can only bring a better understanding for our Veterans to know we will never forget them, and for us through their stories, to understand why we can never forget the sacrifices they made for us.

There are people who are rarely mentioned - such as bandsmen that brought some happiness, even if for a short while; nurses, doctors, medics, journalists etc.  I could go on forever.

I hope with this book it may bring old friends together again, and help children (now adults) looking for information on fathers they may never have had the chance to get to know because they gave the ultimate sacrifice - their life.

For those who agree to help us on this journey, I ask that you also send a letter giving us permission to use your article in our book.  Please pass this on to your family, friends, schools and newspapers.  Any help is greatly appreciated. 

 Thank you. Kim Shergold, #3261 Highway 17 East, R R # 2, Corbeil, Ontario POH 1KO
