Every day we walk by the WWI and WWII bronze memorial plaques in the school lobby. Every year we read their names at our Remembrance Day ceremony but up until recently we did not really know who they were as students here or what happened to them in the war. Eight years ago, our former principal Michael Cristofaro asked me if I could do something with the pictures of our Westmount High School men that are stored in the school’s archives and who sadly, died in WWII.
