It was immensely gratifying to see the commemorations in the
Memorial Park in Crawley on my last visit. The
display of photographs and the wildflowers that form the Heroes Walk were a
splendid tribute. I spent an hour in the park and was very moved to see so many
people walk from one picture to another to study the faces and images of the
time. Of course the family photograph of Uncle Ted and Eddie is there and it
made me feel very proud that one hundred years on residents of the town could
see their faces. I hope that this tribute can continue throughout the centenary
years.
Special thanks must go to Toby Shaw and Ruth Growney of the
Crawley Borough Council.
