Families and members of the maritime community gathered in London last Thursday for the Maritime Foundation’s Annual Service of Remembrance for Those Lost at Sea with No Known Grave.
The Maritime Volunteer Service provided support for the service at All Hallows by the Tower.
The Maritime Foundation established the Memorial Book in 1987 to provide a focus of remembrance for relatives and friends of those who have lost their lives – not just in historical events, but also in present day incidents – irrespective of creed, nationality or context. It resides in the Mariners’ Chapel at All Hallows and records their names and, where possible, the circumstances of their deaths.
