Personal Stories
Poppy Park
Recently Penrith NSW dedicated an artifical poppy with every person who made the ultimate sacrific for our freedom. My family purchased four poppies and Vivian was one of them. We will honour Vivians sacrifice by doing research on him and speak his name often so he will never be forgotten RIP Vivian xx
