Essex Remembers
Essex fell silent at 11am yesterday to remember those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice to protect others during conflict.
Essex County Fire and Rescue Service and Essex Police held special services at their respective headquarters and across stations and places of work.
Representing Roger Hirst, Deputy PFCC Jane Gardner laid a wreath at ECFRS HQ along side Rick Hylton.
Jane said: "Remembrance Day is not only about mourning lives lost. It is a time to say thank you to all who serve and risk their lives for us.
"For those who have gone before. For those who lost so much and gave everything. We will never forget. We will remember you."
