Toukley RSL CenotaphPrint Page 
The Cenotaph was erected by returned servicemen and women to commemorate those who have died in service of been killed in action in the various conflicts in which Australia has been involved.
The Toukley RSL Sub-Branch undertook the restoration and upgrading of the cenotaph from 2017–2019. Works commenced with the addition of a granite podium and two new flagpoles. The concrete coping, housing the interred ashes of departed comrades, was replaced with granite and all plaques were renewed and replaced. The sandstone cenotaph was completely restored with granite and the eternal flame sculpture was also added.
The two statues were installed to commemorate 100 years of service by Australian servicemen and servicewomen in the First World War. The upgraded cenotaph was rededicated on the 11th November 2019.

This Memorial Cenotaph Garden is a place where lives are commemorated, deaths are recorded, families reunited, memories are made tangible and love is undisguised.
Communities accord respect, families bestow reverence, and our heritage is therefore enriched.
Testimonies of devotion, pride and remembrance are cast in stone to pay a warm tribute to those who rest here after giving service to their country.
This memorial is a history of people, a perpetual record of yesterday and a sanctuary of peace and quiet today, and it exists because every life is worth loving and remembering always.
