In the 1920s and 30s, my Grandfather was the Gardener at Mountain View Cemetery and my Mom used to go with him to help. They only lived a few houses away on 33rd Avenue. I have a book that was given to my Mom on October 3, 1931 with an inscription that reads 'From Last Post Fund for helping Daddy with Soldier Plot, Mountain View Cemetery, Vancouver, B.C.'
