Memorial Floral Tribute For Slain Soldier .... Cpl. Nathan Cirillo .... Hamilton, Ontario

.... Mounds of bouquets are placed in front of the John W. Foote Armoury in Hamilton, Ontario where Mr Cirillo was a reservist .... Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, age 24, was a proud soldier who dreamed of serving his country. The Hamilton native was living that dream when he was gunned down in the nation's capital while performing one of the highest honours bestowed upon only the finest Canadian soldiers .... standing guard with an empty rifle over the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Ottawa. Now in Hamilton, across the country (Canada) and around the world, the 24 year olds name will forever be tied to the day Canada's innocence was stolen ....
