Poppy tributes

-

A cross symbolical­ly made from scrap timber and featuring knitted poppies went on display at Horsham RSL this week.

Combined Probus Club of Horsham president Kola Kennedy, with help from knitter Julie Savage, made the cross to commemorat­e the centenary of Anzac.

The pair also worked on a knitted poppy wreath for the Royal Victorian Associatio­n of Honorary Justices Wimmera Branch for a commemorat­ion service in Horsham yesterday.

The red poppies represent soldiers, red and white, nurses, white, civilians and purple, animals involved in armed conflict.
