How kind of you to remember him.
All we can do is to remember, it is so little really but all we have to offer
by way of thanks.
I hope when this 100 years anniversary is past things will not be less .
Perhaps not so intense as this year,but we should never forget.
Viktoria.

Hello ViKtoria yes it is so little for what they did and so young.
It is up to the younger generation to remember and i hope they will.
