GONE TOO SOON

GONE TOO SOON

Memories of days gone by.
When I close my eyes, I can still see your smile. like a big bother, like my
best friend.
I remember that day you looked me right in the eye, and said things are going to
happen.
So, don’t you cry. One day I’ll meet you in the sky, until that day this is
goodbye.
So don’t worry about me I’ll be fine. But if you get Lonesome from time to time.
Just look up to the sky, and you will see, I’ll be the brightest star you’ve
ever seen.
So don’t you worry, and don’t you cry. Because one day we’ll be together, in the
sky – gone too soon.

FRANKFORD WAR MEMORIAL TURNS 100

The War Memorial at Wakeling and Large Streets honors those who served in World
War I.   It was dedicated on November 11, 1922 during the same week as the
opening of the new Frankford El.  November 11th was at that time called
Armistice Day in honor of the ending of hostilities of WWI.  It was later
renamed Veterans Day.

The memorial lists the names of the 2,382 men and women who were from Frankford
and served in the military during the war.  There were 28 fatalities in the
list.  We have spent quite a bit of time working on documenting the history of
the memorial and how it came to be there.  So that there names might not be
forgotten, we created an index of the names from the images of the brass
panels.  You can see it here.  Maybe you will find someone you recognize.

Below is a video of some of the history of the memorial that we produced with
the help of Debbie Klak and the Historical Society of Frankford.

There will be a ceremony to mark it’s 100th birthday on November 10th.  See the 
flyer below for more details.
