....... They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old; 
 ....... age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
 ....... At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
 ....... We will remember them.

   ROLL of HONOUR  - Details about the Service Personnel listed on the Memorial

 . (War Memorial ROLL of HONOUR for other villages close to Bentley.)

The Parish Council completed the refurbishment of the war memorial early in 2001 and annually, since then, services of remembrance have been held around the memorial.  These services are always well supported by the local community.  On the Friday before each Remembrance Sunday, the school, together with the local community hold a 'Service of Remembrance'.  A 'Chaplet' shaped wreath was supplied by a local resident for the Parish Council to lay during the ceremony.  The Parish Council accepted this heartfelt gift and therefore did not purchase a wreath until the resident was no longer in a position to do so.  The words on the card were, and still remain, as she had requested:  'From the residents of Bentley - In Remembrance'..

	....... The Memorial .....(November 2007)
	Report from Bentley Primary School. (Page 14 of the Bentley Bugle.) On Friday 9th November, we held our annual Remembrance Service at the War Memorial in Bentley led by the Revd. Don Mehen. Pupils read aloud the names of the fallen from two World Wars and also read the Remembrance prayers and Kohima Epitaph. We were joined by the Standard Bearer and several members of the East Bergholt branch of the Royal British Legion.
