Remembrance, Reflection and Hirst Locksmiths Availability – November 2026
Taking time to remember those who are never forgotten
Remembrance is a time to pause, reflect and remember the people who are no longer with us.
Danny Hirst, owner of Hirst Locksmiths in Earlston, Scottish Borders, served for 24 years in the British Army with the Royal Engineers. During that time, he experienced the unique friendships, shared challenges and lasting bonds that come from serving alongside others.
Sadly, some of those friends and colleagues are no longer here. They are people Danny served alongside, shared experiences with and trusted. Their memories remain an important part of his life, and this period provides an opportunity to reflect on those friendships and pay his respects.
Remembrance is about more than remembering historical events and conflicts. It is also about remembering the individuals behind them, the friendships formed, the sacrifices made and those who never returned home.
They are never forgotten. Lest We Forget.
