John Leonard Horsham
RCNC (Plymouth, Devon U.K.) Bestowed with the Rank of Knight Commander in the Illustrious Order of Merit for: Outstanding service given his local community over most of his life. An active member & worker for many years in the Devon Branch of the Royal British Legion where he recently retired from his voluntary position as welfare case worker. John's nomination came with a bunch of personal references from his peers, his family and even those he has provided assistance to. Rather than list all of his many achievements and efforts, it is one of those rare occasions where there is personal thanks offered as evidence of the deserving nature of a nominee to receive an award, with comments such as: "The cases (unpaid social casework) extended some three years into John's retirement but made no difference to him seeing them through to the bitter end." "He does what he does for no reward other than the satisfaction that it gives him in helping those in need." "His efforts on our behalf went far and above anything we could have expected. If honours are awarded for outstanding service to one's fellow man then we can think of no-one more deserving of recognition than John Horsham."
"Should this range of
tributes lead to a long overdue award (for John) it would please many
people whose lives he has enriched."
Congratulations!

Grand Cross of Hutt

Rabbi Dr. Shalom Coleman
CBE., AM., MA., PH.D Hon., LLD (UWA)., JP (Perth, WESTERN AUSTRALIA) Bestowed with the: Grand Cross of Hutt - The Highest Award of the PHR. Born into an orthodox family in Liverpool, England on 5 December 1918, graduating Bachelor of Arts with Honours and Bachelor of Letters in Hebrew and ancient Semitic languages and Egyptology from the University of Liverpool. His education was interrupted by World War II when he served with the Royal Air Force as a wireless operator/air gunner on missions in France and Western Europe. In 1944 he was recruiting officer in England for the Jewish Brigade Group. In London, at the end of World War II, Rabbi Coleman joined the Monash branch (named after General Monash, himself a Jew) of the British Legion
After a decade in South Africa, where he gained a Master of Arts at the
University of Pretoria and a Doctorate in Philosophy at the University of
the Orange Free State, he came to Australia in 1961, where he lectured in
Post-Biblical Hebrew at the University of Sydney. In 1965 he took the
position of Chief Rabbi of the Perth Hebrew Congregation from which he
retired in 1985. Over the years Rabbi Coleman has held numerous Jewish,
academic, civic, community and charitable positions and has received
numerous awards and expressions of thanks and esteem for his tireless work
for so many different community organisations. Rabbi Coleman is also a
patron of the Western Australian Division of the Australian Family
Association. Rabbi Coleman has been a Rotarian since 1962, first in Sydney and from 1966 in Perth. He was Rotary President 1985/86 and Governor 1993/9 and personal representative of the World President in 1995, and represented Western Australian Rotary at the United Nations Presidential Conference in San Francisco in 1995. He served as co-ordinator of the District Ethics and Community Service Committees and was chairman of the Bangladesh Cyclone Warning Project, which saved the lives of some 40,000 inhabitants of the chief fishing port of Bangladesh. He was awarded a certificate of appreciation as District Secretary of Probus Centre – South Pacific. He has been a keynote speaker at dozens of conferences in Australia and throughout the world, and is a patron of the Family Association of Western Australia. He was appointed a vice-president of Save the Children Fund in 1967. Rabbi Coleman led several educational tours to Israel for non-Jewish clergy and teachers, lectured to religious groups, schools and service organisations and wrote booklets to help people of all faiths to understand Judaism and the Jewish people. Talks with the Minister of Education led to the establishment of a Committee of National Consciousness in Schools, of which he was chairman; his work was described by the Minister as “invaluable”. Rabbi Coleman was a foundation member of the Perth Round Table, established as a luncheon club, was the inaugural lecturer and set out their guidelines. He has been an honorary military chaplain for many years and was a member of the executive of the veterans’ organisation, the Returned Services League, and edited the RSL “Listening Post” from 1989-91. He is currently honorary Rabbi at the Maurice Zeffertt Centre for the Jewish Aged and was made a Governor of the Perth Aged Home Society in 2004. After several years as president of the Australian and New Zealand rabbinate his colleagues appointed him honorary life president. Several times he went to New Zealand to serve as interim Rabbi for Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur. He shines in the pulpit, and is a very effective chazzan (vocal musician). For his services to youth, education and the community he has received awards from the Queen and the Australian Government. The University of WA conferred an honorary Doctorate of Laws on him in April 2000. He is still, despite his age, a prolific speaker and writer; he continues to travel widely and his services are in constant demand.
Rabbi’s involvement with HRH Prince Leonard (who is proud to call him a
friend) and the PHR goes back a long way, in fact Rabbi was an officiate,
attending the opening of the Chapel of Nain, the Government Offices & Post
Office in the PHR in November 1973. Rabbi Coleman is well versed in the mathematical field of Gematra, as is HRH Prince Leonard and they have often corresponded together on the subject, working together many times when major resolvements have come about. In fact HRH credits Rabbi with stopping him from throwing in the towel as far as Gematra is concerned, telling the story of how many years ago he had come up with resolvements that he did not like or believe could be correct, as a result of his findings he sent them down to Rabbi who returned to him congratulating him on his findings and confirming that all was correct. As a result of this confirmation and support, Prince Leonard failed to “give-up” and in fact continued on with his workings which continue to today and led to many world leading and important mathematical findings in the spiritual. Rabbi Dr Shalom Coleman can be easily seen as a most humble yet most effective man, one whose friendship is much appreciated by HRH Prince Leonard who finds it well past time to now be recognised for all of his contributions to humanity, the Principality of Hutt River and Prince Leonard himself by the rare awarding of the highest honour that the Principality can give, that being the Grand Cross of Hutt.
