- PLAQUE WAS PRESENTED TO DONOR'S PARENTS IN 1979 BY THE VANCOUVER PARISH OF HOLY CROSS ANGLICAN CHURCH ON THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF REV. NAKAYAMA'S ORDINATION AS A PRIEST. THE NAKAYAMA FAMILY WAS ORIGINALLY FROM VANCOUVER BUT MOVED TO COALDALE FOLLOWING THE SECOND WORLD WAR WHEN THEY WERE INTERNED AT SLOCAN CITY IN THE INTERIOR OF BRITISH COLUMBIA BY THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT. THE DONOR'S FATHER, REV. CANON G.G. NAKAYAMA, WAS AN ANGLICAN MINISTER IN VANCOUVER, AND THEN ESTABLISHED THE CHURCH OF THE ASCENSION IN COALDALE IN 1945 WHERE HE SERVED UNTIL 1970.
