Would some one kindly check the following lists for missed names and/or errors?
THEY SHALL LIVE IN EVERLASTING REMEMBRANCE
THIS MEMORIAL IS TO COMMEMORATE THE HEROES OF THE GREENGATE DISTRICT IN THE GREAT WAR 1914 - 18.
IT REPLACES AN ORIGINAL MEMORIAL WHICH STOOD NEAR HERE UNTIL 1968.
MANY OF THOSE NAMED MADE THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE, OTHERS CAME HOME.
THE MAJORITY SERVED WITH THE LANCASHIRE FUSILIERS AND THE MANCHESTER REGIMENT
THE CAMPAIGNING OF THE MANCHESTER EVENING NEWS AND CASSIE-ANN CREELY, THE GREAT NIECE OF FELIX AND THOMAS BATTERSBY, WHO WERE BOTH KILLED, MADE THIS POSSIBLE. THE GENEROSITY OF FRED DONE, THE CO-OPERATIVE FUNERAL CARE AND THE GPL GROUP MADE THIS A REALITY
"NOT IN THE HANDS OF BOYS BUT IN THEIR EYES
SHALL SHINE THE HOLY GLIMMERS OF GOODBYES.
THE PALLOR OF GIRLS' BROWS SHALL BE THEIR PALL;
THEIR FLOWERS THE TENDERNESS OF PATIENT MINDS,
AND EACH SLOW DUSK A DRAWING-DOWN OF BLINDS."
