Good news,I received yesterday evening a mail from Lucy
Thanks again Lesego for your help :thumbs_up:
I'm surprised too and don't understand why we can't say "In the memory of " if it's a memorial bench...
Afraid Kruger becomes a huge memorial :hmz:

In memory of / Remembering/ honouring/ never forgotten/with thoughts of/ thinking of

Thanks Lion Queen, appreciated, if necessary I will esculate (like I did the initial enquires :twisted: )but I have personally decided to ask all his nearest and dearest to come up with something original and we will put it to the vote. My favourite so far is Listen to the Fish Eagle with his name and dates
