Remembrance Day: Rosehall residents lay crosses for the Fallen

There was a short commemoration at Rosehall War Memorial yesterday, led by Lt Colonel Colin Gilmour who said prayers for those named on it.

Lt Col Gilmour laid a wreath on behalf of the Sutherland Lieutenancy, Carol Gilmour on behalf of the British Legion and Donald Morrison on behalf of Sutherland Masonic Lodge.

Individual crosses were laid by other residents of the parish.

The remembrance service was held in the Church of Scotland when Lily Byron read the names of the fallen from the parish while John Wood read Binyon’s words.

Adrian Fenn responded with the Kohima epitaph and Anne Gould read from St John’s Gospel and a poem by the Rev Charles Henry Wood.

Lt Col Gilmour gave an address and a collection for the work of the Earl Haig Fund through PoppyScotland raised £112.
