Title: Burlington Memorial Gardens, Ontario
Post by: BumbleB on Saturday 02 August 25 16:26 BST (UK)

I'm wondering, pretty please, whether anyone is able/willing to obtain a photograph for me of a commemoration at Burlington for: 

Gordon Ross Archbell - died 29 March 2021 at Joseph Brant Hospital.

The Hamilton Spectator says that he is to be interred at Burlington Memorial Gardens.

I live in England, so am unable to visit for myself.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried contacting the contributor ?  Quite an elderly gentleman but hopefully still going strong ?

Added.  Oh sorry I see not accepting messages !!  :-\ :-\

The ancestry contributor was active in the last 2 - 6 days would they be able to help ?
2 hr 22 min journey from Sarnia to Burlington but they may know of a relative nearer ?

Thank you Sandra - it is Gordon who is buried at Burlington, and I would like to have an image of the headstone, if possible.

Thanks Sandra - I think that I have now made contact, so hopefully I will receive a photo of the memorial.

I'll keep my fingers crossed.  And hopefully not have to repeat the exercise.  :-\ :-*
