Flinton Remembrance Day

The Northbrook Legion branch 328 organised a well attended ceremony of remembrance last Sunday,(November 6) under bright blue skies and crisp autumn temperatures in Finton. Local cadets led by Tim Trickey stood watch as a parade of veterans and community elders laid wreathes in memory of venerable institutions and family members who have passed away. Among the many who attended the ceremony, young and old, the most cherished was 92 year of Gordon Wood, a D-Day veteran who still lives in Flinton. The ceremony was followed by a lunch, courtesy of branch 38, at the nearby Raise the Roof Ministry building
