The Cenotaph, a block with the lists of local war dead (on the north side) surmounted by a cross, is located near the centre of the cemetery's old section. The aisle of cedars starts just inside the entrance of the cemetery and leads south to the cenotaph.
The same names (with one exception) also appear on the Cenotaph on the McMillan Public Library (207 Furnival Road, Rodney). The error is Thomas A. Bushensky instead of (Trooper) Albert Bushensky. There is some overlap with the names on the Cenotaph at the West Lorne Arena (171 Graham Road, West Lorne).
JOHN E. MEYER | missing from the cenotaphs but listed on the family gravestone at Rodney Cemetery |
HOMER SCHLEIHAUF | listed on the West Lorne Arena Cenotaph, but not on family gravestones in Evergreen or Rodney or Saint Peter's cemeteries |
