Honour to speak about the late Idwal Davies BEM at the posthumous presentation of his British Empire Medal to his family by the Lord Lieutenant on Saturday.
So sad he passed away before it could be presented, but at least he lived to receive the announcement and our congratulations. Idwal’s family can be immensely proud of this award, in recognition of his enormous contribution to our community, particularly his work with the hospital friends and the veterans and his contribution to local history through his book.
He will be sorely missed, and as the title of his book says gone, but not forgotten.
