Anzac Day is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand that broadly commemorates all Australians and New Zealanders “who served and died in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations” and “the contribution and suffering of all those who have served”. Observed on 25 April each year, Anzac Day was originally devised to honour the members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) who served in the Gallipoli Campaign, their first engagement in the First World War (1914–1918).

We’re all likely very happy to see 2020 slide away into history.

This is the time we take to lift a glass and toast those we have lost.   We have lost too many this year, not just those names we all know, but so many we don’t.

So please take this moment to say a prayer, take a moment, light a candle for all those we’ve lost in 2020.

On the 11th Hour of the 11th Day on the 11 Month

For those who have fought we honor you.

For those who have gave their lives we remember you.

In Memory of those we’ve lost this year.

We take this moment to lift a glass in memory of those we’ve lost this year.

As we come to the end of 2017, we take the moment for those we have lost.

*raises a glass*

Though you have gone from us

You will always be in our hearts

You will always be in our memories

And from that you are never truly gone

On the 11th Day of 11th Month at the 11th Hour

Today we take 2 minutes at 11 am for a moment of silence for all those who have given their lives for our countries.

Let us never forget those we’ve lost.

In Memoriam: Chester Bennington

Linkin Park is practically the Soundtrack to Sylum Clan.  The amount of material their songs have inspired for vids, stories, and well their latest album One More Light – a whole series.

My heart broke hearing the news of Chester’s death.

His lyrics and voice were memorizing and heart filled.

Hearing them and knowing in the end he lost his battle with Mental Illness – it hurts.

So here at Sylum we do what we do best.

Raise a glass to those we’ve lost.

And immortalize them in Sylum.

Chester’s voice will live on in his music.  His music will live on in Sylum.

*lights a candle*

Sylum has always been the ‘fix-it’ when we lost those we care about …

This year we’ve worked over time!

On this day we take a moment to reflect back to those we’ve lost this year.

Though we may only want to light one candle for those gone or we’ll be burning down the house.

2016 has ripped our hearts out, taken our sanity, and yet individually we have had moments of blessings.

*holds up glass*

To those who we’ve lost.

To those who have touched our lives

We miss you and wish you peace.
