RESIDENTS in Kilmarnock gathered to pay tribute to fallen servicemen and women during a special Remembrance Sunday ceremony.
The town's annual service took place at the war memorial on Sunday, November 8, bringing together members of the community to remember those who lost their lives in conflict.
A parade was scheduled to leave CentreStage at around 10.35am, with councillors and clergy departing from the Dick Institute at 10.50am.
The ceremony featured prayers, hymns, wreath laying and a two-minute silence in honour of those who served.
Captain Les Heal, of the Salvation Army, led prayers and reflections during the service, with music provided by the Salvation Army Band.
The commemorations included a performance of Flowers of the Forest by a piper, followed by the Last Post and the traditional two-minute silence.
Georgina Cairns, of the Royal British Legion Scotland, delivered the Act of Remembrance.
The service also featured a performance of Amazing Grace by Arrah Chalmers.
Wreaths were laid at the memorial as those attending paid their respects.
East Ayrshire Council said: "Today, we gathered to remember and honour all those who have served and sacrificed for our country.
"We paid tribute to those who gave their lives, those who served, and all those whose lives have been shaped by conflict."
The ceremony concluded with the National Anthem, a blessing and the dismissal of the parade.
