“His Name Was Gerald Aubrey Strangward ”
"Let those who come after see to it that his name be not forgotten".
"There are those, who HAVE NOT EVEN BEEN ABLE to talk about their loved one who was lost ... who have NOT KNOWN where he died, nor how, nor why.
Their grieving process has not taken place.
Those of us who wish to walk alongside them, remembering, shall continue to do so. The privilege is ours".
In or out of conflict our Merchant Men, women and children were and are the salt of the Earth.
Marina our thoughts now are with you and yours.
Gently rocked by the tide,
Cradled in the arms of the sea
Shipmates always,
Remembered with pride.
Forever at peace with the sea.
Tony Meade, 1997
Please spare a thought for Tamara, Gerald is her father:
