A Very Meaningful Gift

Rotarian Bill Clevette displays a gift presented by the Rotary Club of Welshpool, a twin of the Rotary Club of Norfolk Sunrise, during a Friendship Exchange in Wales and Normandy in September.

 

The gift features a ceramic poppy, one of the 888,246 poppies in the historic photo floating in the river in front of the Tower of London. The poppies represent each English and Commonwealth soldier that died for King and Country during the First World War.

 

The treasured gift will be displayed in the Norfolk County Library.
