The event was a heartfelt tribute to the brave heroes who sacrificed so much for our freedom.

Following the service, residents, veterans and children gathered in the Garden of Remembrance for the unveiling of the Tommy Silhouette. This powerful symbol now stands as a reminder of the courage and resilience of those who served.
