Tompkins, Saskatchewan
This cenotaph was constructed in loving memory of those who gave their lives in Riel Rebellion (1885), World War I (1914 - 1918), and World War II (1939-1945)
Erected by the Tompkins Community and the Royal Canadian Legion. In 1980 a grant of $1000 was received from the Province of Saskatchewan to help mark the 75th anniversary of the formation of the province in 1905.
The cenotaph/cairn is maintained by Legion members and residents of Tompkins and area. The small community of Tompkins is located in south western Saskatchewan along the Trans-Canada highway between Swift Current and Maple Creek on the main line of the CPR.
