@cathhmorrison Hi Catherine! I don't seem to be able to DM you, but you can send this account a DM and we can connect you with one of our volunteers

Each one of these stones represented someone who was loved, and is now missed, but as everyone who stopped today proved, they are not forgotten.

[NBCovidMemorial @NBCovidMemorial]

Over the last 24 hours we have had the opportunity to talk to people all over Canada and hear their thoughts. Each one had something kind and encouraging to say.

@loribgood1 We are so sorry for your loss. If remembering him and others lost gives even one person impacted some comfort, all the planning and work that went into this was worth it.

[NBCovidMemorial @NBCovidMemorial]

We have collected the memorial in Fredericton - thank you Frederictonians for leaving it intact so that we can reuse the materials and our banner for future memorial installations. Thank you for remembering with us!

We will have a statement to share later tonight!

[NBCovidMemorial @NBCovidMemorial]

If you're looking for the NB Covid Memorial on the green across from the legislature in Fredericton - just follow the signs!

[NBCovidMemorial @NBCovidMemorial]

Heartwarming to see that the first New Brunswick Covid-19 memorial stayed up overnight and we hope it can remain for the rest of the day as well. Grateful for the community's respect and rememberance.

It can be found across from the legislature in Fredericton by the gallery.

[NBCovidMemorial @NBCovidMemorial]

@RexannaKeats @nb_covid_info So sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing. Gone but not forgotten 💔

The New Brunswick Covid-19 Memorial, with its first location across the street from the New Brunswick Legislature on the green next to the Beaverbrook Art Gallery was inspired by the United States Covid Memorial in 2021 in front of the White House https://t.co/TjLlQ0wATg

[NBCovidMemorial @NBCovidMemorial]

The New Brunswick Covid-19 Memorial project was inspired by a similar memorial held on the White House Lawn in the United States https://t.co/TjLlQ0wATg

[NBCovidMemorial @NBCovidMemorial]

It is important to note that experts believe the actual death toll to be much higher https://t.co/IZrRsjBTRs
