Remembrance Sunday
For many years the Masonic fallen have been remembered in Doncaster and District by the laying of a wreath at Doncaster’s War Memorial by the President of DDIMA, currently W Bro Richard Paver of St George’s 242.
As usual, there was an excellent gathering outside Elmfield Park, Doncaster as can be seen from the above picture taken as W Bro Richard approached the Memorial.
This year, in addition, W Bro Bob Corfield of Hall Cross 5744 laid a wreath at Thorne’s Memorial Park. Often a family event, this was no exception as also present with a detachment of 26 Air Cadets was W Bro Bob’s son, Flt Sgt Martyn Corfield, also a member of Hall Cross Lodge.

Although not on the same scale as Doncaster, a good number of the local community was present with representatives of each of the services and a number of ex-servicemen’s and youth organisations in attendance.
