Hillsborough Remembered.
As usual lads, Still counting the years not days or weeks, For those proven guilty to be brought to book for a tragedy that took 96 lives along with a great young lad who went the match with my younger brother who thank the lord returned home, Sadly his good friend who went the match with { Gary Church } Never. Just got back from the local park here in Seaforth after letting 96 balloons fly to heaven to let them all know they will never be forgotten 29 years ago. The bench that was put in Bowersdale park seaforth is still as good as the day it was placed. R.I.P. Them all Y. N.W.A. Terry.
REDS star Jamie Carragher unveiled a memorial bench last night for those who died at Hillsborough.
He stood with former Everton striker Graeme Sharp to cut the ribbon.
It was installed at Bowersdale Park in Seaforth to remember teenager Gary Church and the 95 other victims.
Jamie said: "With Gary being from Seaforth it’s a very special thing that everyone will appreciate. We are all here for Gary and hopefully we will remember this for a long time."
Sefton Council chief Margaret Carney said her own husband was "lucky" because he returned from Hillsborough. Gary’s family expressed thanks to the 200 people who attended.

Re: Hillsborough Remembered.
Terry, like the MN this story must not be allowed to die.
Future generations must be made aware so that similar events can never happen again.
Thanks for bringing it all to out attention.


Happy daze John in Oz.
