In Memoriam Queensday 2009



Dear readers,

Today a post about our Queensday 2009.
This post I tribute to all the people who were involded in this tragedy:

In remembrance of the people who died and got injured last Queensdag 30-04-2009.

The 2009 attack on the Dutch Royal Family occurred in Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, where a man drove his car at high speed into a parade which included Queen Beatrix, Prince Willem-Alexander and other members of the Dutch royal family; the attack happened on April 30, the Dutch national holiday of Koninginnedag (Queen's Day).
The vehicle drove through people lining the street watching the parade, leaving eight dead and ten injured. It narrowly missed the royal family and crashed into a monument at the side of the road. No members of the royal family were harmed. This attack was the first attack on the Dutch royal family in modern times.

In Apeldoorn there was a memorial about the dramatic events. It took place yesterday.
Queen Beatrix and Mayor Fred de Graaf unveiled a memorial commemorating for the victims around 16.20 hours. Then there was a moment of silence and then the people who were present laid white roses at the monument.




"Het Herinneringsmonument 30 april 2009" The monument was made by the artist Menno Jonker.



The metal box with granite lids is situated under an oak tree opposite the needle. The box contains some glass balloons. Seven white balloons were changed color. They symbolize the seven victims who died in the attack. Some other balloons have retained their color.
There is no balloon for the person which was responsible for this tragedy.

My thoughts are with all the people who lost a dear one in this tragedy.
My special thoughts are also for the parents and family of the person who caused this all. They lost their son which is as bad for them as it was for all the other relatives of all the victims who lost their lives because of him.
My thoughts are also at those people who were badly injured because of this attack.
They had to suffer a great deal.
The Royal Family has my thoughts too, they were very dazed by all this.

I wish everybody, which were involded in any way, a great deal of strenght especially today. Memory's from last year will make this day very hard for all of you.

My deepest sympathy for you all.
This candle is for you all

  6. I live in Apeldoorn myself, and not so far away from where this happened. Everytime I pass this place I think and pray for the victims. It's good that there is a monument right now. I still see all those flowers at the Canedian monument last year, and this year there's a lot of flowers at the monument for this tragedy itself.

    I love you for placing this post on your blog. It's good to think of all who suffer from this tragedy..

    It was intended as a reminder to faculty at the university that references quickly become dated, but quickly evolved to become a hugely popular annual list that gives a snapshot of how things have changed, and chronicles key cultural and political events that have shaped a generation.

    Luton Town Football Club (home stadium pictured) is an English professional football club based since 1905 at Kenilworth Road, Luton, Bedfordshire. The club currently competes in the fifth tier of English football, the Conference National. Formed in 1885, it was the first club in southern England to turn professional, making payments to players as early as 1890 and turning fully professional a year later. It did not reach the top division of English football until 1955–56, and did not reach a major final until the 1959 FA Cup Final. Relegated from the top division in 1959–60, the team was demoted twice more in the following five years, reaching the Fourth Division for the 1965–66 season, before being promoted back to the top level by 1974–75.

  18. Since a comprehensive school offers a full range of subjects across the academic and vocational spectrum, it is commonly understood that the school will need to be of a large size and to take children from a wide range of abilities. In principle, it was originally conceived as a "neighbourhood" school, which all students in its catchment area were meant to attend, irrespective of ability and without, in most cases, any significant element of parental choice.Opodo Promotion Codesproject management professional

  27. Gday. I noticed your website title, "Blogger: Romika's Nails" does not really reflect the content of your
    web site. When composing your blog title, do you believe it's best to write it for Search engine optimization or for your readers? This is one thing I've been battling with due to the fact I want good search rankings but at the same time I want the
    best quality for my visitors.
