Seeking Family of H R Bower

Denise from Marewa

UPDATE: Roy has a granddaughter living in Napier. A headstone has been ordered and there will be a public unveiling. I'll put up a post when we have a date and time.

We are seeking the family of Harry Roy BOWER 6/4588.

Harry is a veteran of WW1 who won the Military Medal but lies in an unmarked grave at Napier's Park Island cemetery.

He married and had a daughter who died in 2019. She may have had children or there may be descendants of his sisters.

We'd like to get him a headstone, at no cost to the family, but we need to check they have no objection.

Any family can message NZ Remembrance Army Facebook page please or me if you don't have Facebook.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.
