Heritage Rose Garden
Pause and Reflect
This memorial garden is dedicated to the strength and courage of Women in wartime.
The women who served,
The women who nursed,
And the women who remained at home and waited.
They bore the long and terrible years of uncertainty and grief.
They took up the baton passed by their men away at war and shouldered the load,
Both in the work place and at home.
They then cared for the damaged minds and bodies of those who returned.
In this peaceful place take a moment to reflect on the sacrifices of the heroes of the other side of war,
The Women of War.
Pause and reflect in peace
This garden was made possible by the David Rushton Heritage Rose Conservation Grant and the Great Southern Heritage Roses in Australia Inc. in collaboration with the City of Albany, October 2014.
