  • I do not know you, one of your family members or a friend. We have no connection other than our love for a country that we call/ed home - New Zealand. I have a son who I hope will never live or experience a war, and I have you and all the other brave men and women who sacrificed all for us, to thank. I will lay a poppy in remembrance of you. From my heart, with utmost respect and sincerity - thank you!!
