Footnotes:
1. The Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee Medal is a commemorative medal instituted on February 7, 1977, to mark the twenty-fifth anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's accession in 1952. The medal is physically identical in all realms where it was awarded, except for Canada, where it contained unique elements, with the medal slightly thicker, the crown on the Queen's effigy more upright on the obverse, the reverse with a distinct design that bears a stylized maple leaf with "CANADA" above and the Royal monogram below, flanked by the dates "1952" and "1977". As an internationally distributed award, the Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee Medal holds a different place in each country's order of precedence for honours. In order that the list of those to be honoured would be representative of all the regions of Canada, agencies of government at the federal, provincial, and local levels were invited to propose the names of candidates for the medal. National organizations in every important field of endeavor, including the professions, education and arts, veterans' groups, sports associations, philanthropic and charitable bodies and welfare services were asked to participate in submitting nominations. All members of the Order of Canada, Order of Military Merit and winners of the Canadian Bravery Decorations received the medal. Selection for the Armed Forces was based on merit with length of service and prestige of current appointment as secondary consideration.
2. Donald James Heyes CD was born in 1932 and received the Canadian Forces' Decoration in the rank of Corporal with the Canadian Army. Heyes was a Life Member of the Royal Canadian Legion holding office in the Duke of Kent Memorial Branch 119 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, as well as the Manitoba/Northwest Ontario Command for over twenty years and was a recipient of the Royal Canadian Legion Meritorious Service Medal on May 12, 1977. He married Margaret Maxine Heyes (nee Wanless, born June 22, 1937) in 1957. Margaret had grown up in Belmont, Manitoba where she received her education, moving to Winnipeg in 1956 where she went to business school and became a secretary working for several companies over the years. He and his wife lived in Winnipeg and although they had no children of their own, they touched the lives of many children through the Legion Athletic Camp at the Peace Garden where they devoted a lot of their spare time, energy and talents to the Athletic Camp. They travelled Canada extensively through their many activities with the Royal Canadian Legion. In 1991, they bought their retirement home at Winnipeg Beach and would live there until 1999, when Don's illness forced them to return to Winnipeg, where they lived until their deaths. Donald James Heyes passed away at St. Boniface Hospital in Winnipeg on October 4, 1999, at the age of 66-67. He donated his remains to onocology and cell research, after which his cremated remains were interred in Brookside Cemetery in Winnipeg, with full Legion Service. His wife, Margaret, died on March 10, 2002, her cremated remains buried with her parents in the family plot during a graveside service in Hillside Cemetery, in Belmont on May 18th.
