Seeking Family of H R Bower
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.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
