Former Lt-Governor's wife lays wreath
IN A poignant break with tradition, the wife of the former Lt-Governor laid a wreath on her late husband's behalf at yesterday's Service of Remembrance.
Lynda Walker was accompanied by her daughter, Suzie Jacobs, who had travelled to the island especially for the occasion.
Mrs Walker was second to lay a wreath, behind the Bailiff Sir Richard Collas who carried out the duty on behalf of the people of Guernsey.
Her husband, Air Marshal Peter Walker, died suddenly on 6 September.
'Each year, the Lt-Governor lays a wreath at the St Peter Port War Memorial at Remembrance on behalf of Government House and its staff,' said the Lt-Governor's secretary and ADC Major Marco Ciotti.
'This year was no exception and today that duty was fulfilled by Mrs Walker.'
