The Wall of Honour

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.

Some gave all....

To honour all of those in my family tree who laid down their lives in service—not for glory or gain, but for what they believed in, even if it caused conflict off the battle field as well. They lived in complicated times, made hard choices, and paid the ultimate price. Regardless of which side they fought on, they acted with courage, conviction, and a sense of duty shaped by their time. Their sacrifices are part of our story, and as we carry that legacy with humility and respect, we will not forget them.
