My Great Uncle Leslie Launder finally gets his name onto Cockermouth memorial.

OK Billy no problem.

 

Just an update.

Uncle Rob has contacted the stone mason and he will be doing it in the next couple of weeks weather permitting.


Michael.

 

You should post a photograph when it is completed. I can then have a look the next time I am passing by there.

 

That is fantastic news for you and your family . Elsie

 

Well done Michael,

The longer the journey, the sweeter the result!

Cheers

Geoff

 

Congratulations Michael.

A similar thing happened to my family and one wonders just how many of the fallen are missing from memorials across the country.

My Uncle's name was not included in his local memorial, Marple, Cheshire and initially the Council said it could not be added since there was no space.

However thanks to the British Legion and the original stonemason, who did the work for almost nothing, he did manage to squeeze it on.

 

That is great news Michael! Well done!

 

Today Leslie has finally got his name onto Cockermouth war memorial.



Ernie Thwaite starting to put Leslie's name onto the forum.



Ernie nearly done.



A big thank you to Ernie Thwaite for doing a great job on putting Leslie's name onto the memorial.



Leslie finally where he should be.

 

Great to see a project come to fruition!

Cheers

Geoff
