11th Day 11th Hour

[lindasmiley1]

Hi, I heard the S-J version and wrote for permission to arrange the song for children's voices and they graciously said yes. If your great-grandfather was in the Canadian forces/British, you might find him listed in the Virtual Memorial on the Veterans Affairs Canada website. Let me know if you need help. And I'm glad you liked the video. My son helped me make it.

Thanks for this video, I was really looking for a video by Saxon-Jaimes of the song, but this is terrific. Rememberance has become more important to me over the last few years. I never knew anything about my Great Grandfather as none of the family ever spoke of him. My nephew did some research and found that he was killed at the battle of The Somme.

This is a beautiful piece, it's the first time I've heard it. I'll have the honour of marching in this year's remembrance day parade in my city, as I recently joined the reserves. Wearing the same uniform, under the same flag as the fallen is truly an honour. Lest we forget.

+@TheBeatles193 --thanks for your note. And I'm sure there are lots of people who will be glad to see you marching on November 11th. take care.

@TheBeatles193 I don't think you got my other reply re sheet music. Send me an email address and I'll send it to you. Cheers.

This was beautiful. My grand dad was in in WWI, my dad and mom served in WWII my brother in law served 42 years in the Canadian Air Force and we as a town just lost a beloved young man of 20 in Afghanistan. We must not forget.

@00alc000

So sorry to hear about the death of such a young man in Afghanistan. Every war the soldiers are so young, so full of life and promise. All the more reason for us to remember each and every one who served. Please pass along this video so that many more can hear the song, maybe learn the song for November 11th. Thank you for sharing.
