Canada’s 2025 Silver Cross Mother, Nancy Payne, says her son, Randy, was always a playful child.
“He was a character,” Payne told The Epoch Times. “He was very funny. He was charming. He was very athletic. He was a busy little boy when he was young. You knew he was around because he was lively. … He always had this big grin on his face and that twinkle in his eye.”
The Silver Cross Mother is chosen each year by the Royal Canadian Legion to represent all mothers who have lost a son or daughter in military service. Payne will lay a wreath at the National War Memorial in Ottawa on Nov. 11….
