Tribute to Four Brothers

Following the military theme from the previous week, when Tom Trumble engagingly told the story of a relative who led a team left on Timor in World War 2, member Don Erickson was this week's speaker, telling the story of his father and three uncles who all volunteered for service in World War I.  Ably supported by Margaret's Powerpoint presentation, Don briefly walked through the story of each, from the time of enlistment.  It was a moving tribute to his relatives, culminating in some photos of the names of his fallen uncles recently being displayed on the War memorial light show.  The meeting fittingly concluded, in this Remembrance Day week, with the Ode of Remembrance. Don is pictured below giving the talk.
