It was a beautiful ceremony. We'd
like to thank very much the superb association standard
bearers - the Royal Air Force, Burma Star, Royal Tank
Regiment, Merchant Navy, Royal Engineers, Queen's Own
Buffs, and two from the Royal British Legion. |

And finally - the unsung star
backstage. Here's master stonemason Ivor Spencer, in his
workshop at Spencer and Cleverley's, who created the new
memorial. |

So very many people came together,
to remember those we lost from our town. So many people helped,
advised, supported, and worked hard behind the scenes. Dover
does not forget those we mourned, Dovorians still have that
warm-hearted and proud sense of community, forged in the darkest
times. Thank you to you all.
