The Fernie Legion Branch no. 36 held a Remembrance Day parade and ceremony on Nov. 11 to pay homage to brave men and women who sacrificed their lives for their country.
Legion members led a solemn procession through the downtown streets to the cenotaph outside the Fernie Court House, where residents gathered to pay their respects.
It was a blustery day. Freezing rain and sleet poured from the sky, but those who partook in the ceremony stood proud and tall nevertheless.
