In what seems a painfully long time ago, the then three-year-old William Tyrrell went missing from his grandmother’s Kendall home.

There has been no trace of the little boy but many questions raised about his disappearance.

Today is a time to reflect on the life of a young man who may not have the opportunity to realise his own greatness, achieve his dreams or grow old.

What will not be compromised however, is the fire that burns within a community of people across the world who want the little boy returned, or for justice to be delivered.

William Tyrrell will not be forgotten and while ever there is hope in each and every one of us that he could be returned safe and well, or for the truth to be found, then those four little candles will burn bright.

Join the Kendall community, and people right across the nation today, in symbolic recognition of William’s birthday.
