00:30See the hearts to bloom
00:39See the still, still waters
00:48The still crystal stones of spring
00:56I will trust you
01:05And I will trust you alone
01:14Hold your heart and trust me
01:20Hold your heart and trust me
01:24Your heart is a living river
01:45And though I walk a dark path
01:54I will not fear the evil one
02:03For you are with me and
02:09Your heart is still and happy to know
02:22And I will trust you
02:30And I will trust you alone
02:40Hold your heart and trust me
02:46Hold your heart and trust me
02:50Your heart is a living river
02:59And though I walk a dark path
03:04I will not fear the evil one
03:14I'm still asking the same old question
03:17Is anybody ever going to tell us why or what happened?
03:21Is the government going to start letting stuff out?
03:24It still happens, we can't get out
03:27It's a scandal, that's what it is, it's a disgrace
03:32People who are supposed to protect me are actually trying to hide stuff
03:46Well, to a degree, aye
03:49And then why should we have to take court cases and everything
03:57to get information when somebody is locked away?
04:01If it is, if it is, as I said, it's a disgrace
04:09Aye, well it does, because it makes me angry
04:12The fact that I know that there's other information out there on people
04:17And for all kinds of reasons, I won't let the thing out, you know
04:24It's just, there's no words to describe it, that's just what it is
04:29I think most of the families here feel the same
04:3252 years on, it's obviously, it's still very painful for all the families and all the victims like yourself
04:37It is really, it is really, we just relive it, you know
04:39And then we're delighted that the money has been done up
04:42And we just hope that the people, the young people, they'll respect
04:45You know, they'll be very candid, you know, on this
04:49Aye, and seeing it, is this, you've seen it before now, like I suppose
04:52Oh yes, and the stones in the wall were all crumpled down
04:55It really was needed, you know, and then it made it bigger
04:58It made the seeking case larger, so we really respect it now
05:01Aye, it feels like a f*****g monument now, it feels like a f*****g monument now
05:05I know, I know, I remember it very well
05:08And 52 years on, there's still so many questions as well, Mary, isn't there?
05:11Like, you know, there's still so many unanswered questions
05:13Well, that's the thing, you know, we never get answers
05:16You know, it's sad to think, you know, people are walking around, you know
05:19You remember to go on, but we never get answers
05:22And I suppose that hurt, from the time, the devastation, and then the hurt compounds that
05:27Well, this is it, that's it, we're all going to get it, you know
05:30It is sad, you know, but this is it, there's so many across the province
05:35It's just the same boat
05:38This memorial is a solemn tribute to those who lost their lives, ensuring they are never forgotten
05:45For me, this memorial holds a particular special significance
05:50My grandfather, Davy Muller, was one of those murdered in the attack
05:55He was a man of great courage and passion, and he died trying to help others be safely
06:04His selfishness and bravery are a testament to his strength and courage in the face of unimaginable tragedy
06:13The update to this memorial is more than just a restoration of stone and inscription
06:19It is a commitment to preserving history and a dedication to ensure that future generations can visit, reflect and understand the impact of that beautiful day
06:33By future-proofing this memorial, we reinforce our promise to remember, allowing the legacy of those who perished to be preserved through the years
06:44As a family, we are comforted by the knowledge that this memorial will stand against the times
06:52That the shared loss of my grandfather, Davy Muller, and the other victims will not be forgotten
06:59Their stories live on, hence the fabric of our community and the past lives of future generations
07:07As we unveil this memorial today, let us all renew and resolve our pursuit of peace, unity and a better future
07:17Honouring the memory of a glory night
07:20May this place of remembrance stand strong, offering solace and reflection for all those who have died
07:29Thank you
07:41Well really now it's the culmination of three years' work, you know, and the run-up to the 50th anniversary
07:47Which went off here, you know, obviously two years ago
07:51And the interest was expressed then to redevelop the memorial, to a more fitting memorial
07:56Something that's going to last, you know, a legacy going forward
07:59And that's what we've worked to now, you know, with the families, my colleagues, myself, with the South East Romana Foundation
08:05And this is where we are today, with the cooperation of Gerry and Sturban District Council
08:10It's all come together very nicely
08:12And this is the rededication today as well
08:14Just the rededication today
08:17And obviously it's very poignant because it's the 52nd anniversary isn't it
08:25I want to take this opportunity to pay tribute to the strength and resilience of the Torney community
08:32Where the shadows of this old land of terror has not been allowed to permeate
08:39But where people have instead chosen to nurture compassion, promote reconciliation and to foster the spirit of peace
08:49I think everyone would agree that the refurbishment of the memorial has made a huge difference
08:57And I want to thank all involved for their hard work, expertise and commitment to restoring the memorial
09:06Both from the council team and the local community
09:09The result is a welcoming shared space for quiet reflection
09:14And it will become an important place for anyone in the local community seeking comfort and peace
09:22Finally, I want to take a moment to remember all those killed and injured in this terrible atrocity
09:31And to extend my heartfelt sympathy and support to all the women and their ongoing campaign to seek justice for the victims
09:41As we stand here today, let us bear firm our commitment to peace and unity
09:47Ensuring that the memory of those we have lost inspires us to build a future free from violence and build with hope
09:57Together we can honour their legacy by continuing to work towards a more compassionate and just society
10:05Thank you very much for having me
10:16You were 12 whenever this happened, you lived in the local area, you knew a lot of the people that were affected
10:21I thought at that time it was a lot smaller of us and it was very much community based and everyone knew each other
10:27So the 9 people, the 9 victims are all very well known, I'm the only person that's a child
10:32I knew Catherine Aitkenberry very well, but also the other night when we went to Mrs McLaughlin and all that
10:38We went up and she did the chips, we get the chips of her family on buses and over onto Mr McLaughlin
10:47And Artie Owen, he lived up to Ray, another nice man who used to come round to the petroware
10:52And you had the wee milkman, Temple, he came in and he drank my mother's milk as well
10:58So everybody was well known to them all and it was a great shock to the community that something like that happened in Cardiff
11:05A very much mixed community and it's just sad, I'm sad to think that just the week before, a few weeks before
11:13What actually kept it back was the telephone exchanges blowing up, so nobody could get any words through
11:20And to me that was a tragedy and it's a tragedy that should never have happened
11:27And all those people that were here today, they didn't deserve that
11:32And I think the families need an answer, an answer to what actually happened
11:37Everybody will want to know what happened around the world, funerals were massive
11:41And I remember even going to the funerals, you know, and Catherine Aitkens and all that
11:46You would have heard the silence, you would have heard the hand-claps
11:50And it was a very sad back day for Cardiff, so it was
11:55And I would never wish this to happen on anybody
11:58So it's great, I thank our politicians up there, it needs to get together and move forward
12:03Stop looking back, you know, the people of Northern Ireland want that, and that's what we want
12:08We want to live in peace with one another, which we have always done
12:12And may the peace of God, which passes all understanding
12:16Through our hearts and minds and the knowledge and love of God
12:19And of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord
12:22And the blessing of God Almighty, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit
12:27Remain with us always
12:29Amen
12:33Amen
