CHRISTMAS TREE OF REMEMBRANCE – DECEMBER 13th 2014
Christmas Tree of Remembrance
December 13th @ 5pm
Johnny Cullens Hill / East Road
Our East Wall Village Tree of Remembrance will be lit by Barry Masterson P.C. Barry, as you all know, has been deeply involved in Community Activity since he first came to East Wall, decades ago. To this day he still works in East Wall Credit Union.
We’ll join, as a community, to remember all East Wallers, wherever they may be. Christmas carols will be sung by the P.E.G. Variety and Drama Group. Karl Ronan will, once again, take photographs of the event and we’ll have our mulled wine and mince pies.
The demand for ribbons has grown so much over the years – we will have blank ribbons ready for everyone who attends so they can write their own message. For those abroad and those who can’t make it we will write the ribbons and put them on the tree for you if you let us know in advance, the names and addresses, on the East Wall Community and Diaspora Facebook Page.
We kept the decorations from last year’s tree and they will be there for you to pick up and place on the tree.
We’re hoping for the biggest turnout ever, as the tree has so quickly become an East Wall tradition. It is an important time we come together as the community that includes the East Wallers around the world and those who have passed on. For those few hours we are all reunited!
