Some H&R Block branches in the Parkland have found a special way to recognize veterans leading up to Remembrance Day.
Franchise owner of Dauphin’s H&R Block, Gloria Austin-Epp, says they’re asking community members to bring in photos of past and present veterans to be displayed in the front window – an idea sparked by Barb Cseh from the Winnipegosis branch.
“I just take a picture of it and then we make a copy of it on the computer, and we put a black and white picture up in the window.”
Gloria adds that she has included photos of her own family members that have served in the military.
“I’ve got my great uncle and I’ve got my dad up there, and the girl that works with me, Jackie, her great grandpa is up there. My dad was in WWII, and my great uncle was in WWI.”
The photos will stay up for a short period after November 11th.
