Today, I attended Remembrance Sunday service at St. John's Parish Church in Grove, where along with other councillors and residents we were able to pay our respects to those who have died on our behalf, both in the Great Wars and in current conflicts in Afghanistan. There were many more Rainbows, Brownies and Beavers, Cubs and Scouts than I can remember, so it was a fully packed congregation.
This afternoon, I have just walked back from Grove cemetery where I joined parish councillors to lay the wreath on behalf of the community for the USAAF soldiers who served in Grove during the war. Again, this is something we do every year.
Many others all over the country will be doing the same thing for those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. Long will they be remembered.
