How wonderful!  
Dawn! I can only imagine how you must have felt reading Graham's email and then letting us know - your fingers probably couldn't type fast enough!!  ;D

Quite fitting that it's Guy Fawkes - it's a fireworks sort of moment  ;D

Even more fitting - this from St Peter's own website:

Remembrance is very much the theme for the first part of the month at St Peter's. On the 11th November we hold our traditional Remembrance day service in church at 10.30 am. After the service there is the opportunity to take part in the short service of remembrance  outside the church at the war memorial. In the evening at 6.30 pm is our Memorial service details of which are listed on this page.

Memorial Service - Sunday 11th November at 6.30 pm  
This evening service is especially for those who have been bereaved. In the past many who have come have said they found the service very special. We will be giving thanks for those who have died and commending them to God’s love, as well as hearting God’s words of comfort and reassurance.


During the service we will read out the names of those you wish to be remembered. If you are attending the service the names will be taken on the night but, should you be unable to attend or live at a distance, please feel free to contact us by email and let us know of any particular names that you wish us to mention. In addition, during the service, there will be an opportunity to light a candle, if you wish, in memory of a loved one


Maybe, Michel, you may wish to have Robert's name read out!


Cheers! Really Cheers!
AMBLY  ;D

Oh my goodness Ambly what a good idea to "Our Robert's " name read out on that day !  :)

How wonderful ! ..... see we just KNEW he was there .... but everybody said "No " - the holiday Graham had - must have blown the cobwebs out ! and I am so very glad !

I couldn't post earlier ...... cos you guys were all telling me to get on !!  ;D ;D ;D

Let's think about what to do now ..... we can't expect Edna's sister to turn stones and it will need more than one person Blue  ( and thank you for your offer !  :) )

We need to ask Graham I think for the next steps ......... but in the meantime WOOHOO !!  ;D

What a TEAM effort ..... this has been going for over 9 months and it feels like the blessed day has really arrived !!  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

And I must leave you to your celebrations .......... your well deserved celebrations.    I only stayed up so I could 'see' your excitement Annie.

You know something .......... I'm really proud to be a part of RootsChat when I read this thread.

Congratulations to everyone who took part.
