Goodbye to an Erskine Bear

Fellow bears, take an hour out of your lives and watch this. You will laugh, and maybe (like me), you may shed a tear.

After it, you will sit up straighter, stand taller and inside feel immensely proud. There are some very good people in this world.

Absolutely  mate  it was an excellent programme and well worth a watch.  How the staff can do that work day after day is quite humbling.

There really are good people out there who silently protect us, and we sometimes take it for granted, Donald was one of these good people.

It is good to know that Donald was latterly cared for by people of the same calibre at Erskine, among them our own GB.

Sad to see another legend leave us, and thank him for his part in keeping us safe from harm ....... and yet there are elements who say we should not wear the poppy in remembrance of these heroes.

Lest We Forget.

There comes a time when even our bravest Soldier must lower their flag,

You Donald have done that with dignity, and so I offer my usual tribute:

WHEN SOMEONES TIME HAS COME TO PASS,

A BLUENOSE TO THE END,

UNITED WE STAND, GLASS IN HAND,

TO TOAST OUR ABSENT FRIEND.

My deepest respect for what you gave for my freedom,

Sleep well Sir.

Rest easy Donald you've served your country well. 

GB. The work you do in making these guys enjoy some part of their latter years is fantastic. 

It's only possible due to the overwhelming generosity of the RM Bears. :21:
