    Harry Patch was the last of the Great War veterans in Britain. They are truly now our Lost Generation.

    May he rest in peace, as you say, Brian dear, along with all those others whose lives were so much shorter. I give thanks that we were privileged to have our veterans with us so long, living extra days for their long-gone companions. I will be forever grateful that three of them were able to be at the 90th anniversary of the Armistice, what then must have seemed a dream of impossibility.

    May we all live our lives to the full, in honour and gratitude for those who barely had lives at all.
