Today at Newbiggin Memorial Park, we gathered at 11am to mark the D-Day 80th Commemoration with a heart-warming and well-attended event. We extend our deepest gratitude to the Newbiggin Veterans for their exceptional organisation and delivery, and to Reverend O'Grady for leading a moving service. Special thanks go to Keith Shirley and a representative from Fusiliers Band for their beautiful musical contributions to the service.We also had representatives from Grace Darling School, who delivered a touching reading of the poem "Normandy" by Juno Veteran Cyril Crain. Our heartfelt thanks to the children and Head Teacher for their involvement.
We appreciate all representatives who joined us in remembrance.
Following the wreath laying, Reverend O'Grady guided us through hymns, prayers, and the National Anthem.
Councillor Tom Roll, Vice Chair of Newbiggin-by-the-Sea, expressed his gratitude, saying, "It was a lovely turnout from our community in Newbiggin, all paying tribute on this important day. Thank you to everyone who came together to honour the fallen on this significant 80th Anniversary." Copy of the 'Normandy' poem below.
