That's a beautiful and obviously well cared-for memorial. Thanks for getting it photographed Garry. Sorry I couldn't make it to see it myself.

Jim,
Don't worry about it. The museum staff were fantastic and even spent an hour polishing a Manchester Memorial before we took pictures. Debs has taken some wonderful pictures and may post them when she gets some time.
