All offices of Carleton-Fundy Mutual Insurance will be closed on Monday, September 19th as we observe the National Day of Mourning for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

We see this as an opportunity to pay our respects to Canada’s longest-reigning sovereign, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. She will be affectionately remembered by many for her grace, dignity, and an unwavering sense of duty.

A national commemorative ceremony to honour the life and service of Her Majesty will be held at the Christ Church Cathedral in Ottawa on September 19, 2022, at 11:00 a.m. It will be preceded by a memorial parade and a 96-gun salute – one shot for each year of Her Majesty’s life – and followed by a flypast of Royal Canadian Air Force CF‑18s. The ceremony, including the memorial parade, will be broadcast live for everyone to watch.

Sussex was fortunate to have several visits from the Royal family. The most recent in 2002, when Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Phillip opened the Sussex Elementary School as part of the Golden Jubilee Tour.
