On the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month, we take one minute to be silent and give thanks to all those who serve, have served and have fallen, in order to give us a better world in which to live. It hardly seems enough. My heartfelt prayers go out to all of these brave men and women.
The 11th of November, holds an extra special place in my heart, because of a soldier, Jack Lamont, who fought with honour in Korea. Jack passed away on November 11, 2006. He was my birth father.
The saga of who, where, when and why will have to be the basis of a future story. Suffice it to say, Jack remained an important part of my life. I honour him here with some photos of his military history. We love you Jack, and we do remember.
