No Stone Left Alone Remembrance Ceremony 2020 | FULL

Global News published this video item, entitled “No Stone Left Alone Remembrance Ceremony 2020 | FULL” – below is their description.

On Thursday, Nov. 5, take part in a special tradition that started with one family and has now grown into an effort to ensure every fallen soldier is remembered with a poppy. Global News is proud to partner with the No Stone Left Alone Foundation that serves to honour the sacrifice and service of Canada’s military by educating students and placing poppies on the headstones of veterans every November. The project is a personal passion for foundation president Maureen Bianchini-Purvis. The daughter of two Second World War veterans, she promised her dying mother that she would not be forgotten on Remembrance Day. Year after year, she visited her mother’s grave at Beechmount, laying a poppy in remembrance, and continuing the tradition with her own children. When her daughters noticed the many graves in the Field of Honour that lay bare, the idea for No Stone Left Alone was born.
