M5 crash - one year on: Ceremony to remember victims
7:40pm Friday 2nd November 2012 in News
Hundreds of people paid their respects at a vigil one week after the crash.
VICTIMS of the M5 disaster will be among those remembered at a ceremony this weekend.
The annual Time to Remember event, organised by local faith leaders, takes place at Taunton Deane Crematorium at 11am tomorrow (November 3).
It is open to anyone who wants to reflect on the life of a loved one who has died.
Musgrove Park Hospital’s lead chaplain Viv Henderson said: “For some people, this will be the first opportunity to return to the crematorium since a significant loved one passed away.
“There will be an opportunity to light a candle and give thanks for all those we have lost continue to mean for us today.
“Last year, we met the morning after the crash, so felt it natural to include the M5 crash victims and families alongside the names of loved ones recalled by the 40 folk who attended.”
