ANZAC DAY
HONOURING the heroes of the past is important to valuing and protecting our wonderful country of Australia for current and future generations.
By the time you read this, you will most likely have commemorated ANZAC Day, but I wanted to share again a special song I co-wrote, “Lest We Forget”, a few years ago and then produced it to share with whoever feels as passionately as I do about our country.
My office has a limited number of CDs to GIVE AWAY along with Australian flags in honour of ANZAC Day, or you can listen to the song on my YouTube Channel, Fiona Simpson MP, or you can download it on Spotify.
The song is special to me as the lyrics were written by me, and my good friend and fellow Sunshine Coast singer, Tanya Maree McFadyen-Bandera, wrote the music.
ANZAC Day is important to me as we remember our fallen heroes and all who have served to uphold the freedoms we all benefit from today.
There are many services across the Sunshine Coast on ANZAC Day, and I am privileged to sing the National Anthem at both the 9.00 am Maroochydore and 11.00 am Mudjimba services, and I will attend the Mooloolaba Dawn Service.
I hope as many of you as possible have attended one or more of our local services on the coast this ANZAC Day.
