Hi Everyone I just thought as Remembrance Day is approaching it might be nice if a thread was started so that we could list our family members who are no longer with us. Those who gave their lives, and in some conflicts still giving their lives for us, so that we can enjoy a free and better life. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. I think the above poem says it all really. Cheryl |
