St. Luke's Anglican Church Memorials
In 1920 the stained glass window on the east end of the church was dedicated to Reverend Fanning-Harris, who was wounded on September 16, 1916 during the violent Battle of the Somme in France, while the chaplain was conducting a burial service for a soldier. He passed away on May 4, 1917. The window was paid for by contributions from Church parishioners and overseas Chaplains.
On the west wall, an honour roll lists the names of the 134 parishioners who served in the First World War: crosses mark the names of the 22 men who were killed. A second honour roll on the south wall commemorates the 92 parishioners who served in the Second World War: crosses mark the names of the six men who never returned.

Monuments commémoratifs de l'église anglicane St. Luke
En 1920, le vitrail installé sur le mur est de l’église fut dédié au révérend Fanning‑Harris. L’aumônier, blessé le 16 septembre 1916 pendant la violente bataille de la Somme en France alors qu’il célébrait l’enterrement d’un soldat, y laissa sa vie le 4 mai 1917. Le vitrail fut financé par les paroissiens et des aumôniers d’outre-mer.
Sur le mur ouest, un tableau d’honneur liste les 134 paroissiens ayant servi pendant la Première Guerre mondiale; une croix pour chacun des 22 hommes tombés au combat. Un autre tableau d’honneur, installé au sud, rend hommage aux 92 paroissiens ayant servi pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, une croix pour chacun des six hommes morts au combat.
