It was the night before Sunday,
And all through the house
Not a creature was stirring,
not even a mouse….
Because IT WAS STILL NOVEMBER!!!

Remembrance Day 2025:
I have always believed the importance of Remembrance Day is the legacy we leave for the next generation. The baton of “never again” passed on with love and hope, however fragile that might be.
This is the poem my 17 year old daughter Emily Beckett wrote.
We Will Remember Them.
