With all ceremonies falling victim to the coronavirus (COVID-19) on April 25, many people are thinking of different ways to pay their respects to the men and women who served our country so selflessly.

And, one of them is Raylee Morton.

She's calling on locals to visually commemorate Anzac Day with a dash of purple.

"The cancellation of services due to COVID-19 left me pondering what we could do to acknowledge the Diggers and those who have served and sacrificed their lives for our freedom and lifestyle - without being able to leave our homes," Ms Morton said.

"I heard about the ABC Radio broadcast at 6am on Anzac Day but wondered if this was the best we could do, even in these restricted days.

"My idea is based on the 'tie a yellow ribbon on the old oak tree' principle.

"But, with purple, in this instance.

"I thought that colour, as they use it on the Anzac wreaths.

"People at home can be involved by tying purple ribbons or homemade streamers to their fences, balconies, trees or gates; cars; or in their windows.

"Children could get arty or crafty, drawing colour pictures and/or traditional symbols of Anzac - poppy (red or purple), slouch hat, poppy wreath, Flame of Remembrance or The Riderless Horse for their yard or school.

"Businesses might be able to print purple Anzac Day 'Lest We Forget' posters in their office window.

"As a family, make Anzac biscuits and play the kids' version of Two Up (Google the biscuit recipe and Children's Two Up).

"Parents can also post photos of the children's Anzac tribute with a special message in remembrance of their fallen; family who have served or still serving; and share it through social media."

Ms Morton, who now lives in Queensland, said it was imperative to recognise Anzac Day in the current climate.

"I found this quote online which was very apt," she explained.

"This is a day not of celebration but of national memory. It's a day when we learn, and learn again, of the horror of purposeless war. It is a day for looking after your mates, cherishing your home, your neighbourhood and family. It's a day for realising how rare this wonderful country of ours is and how precious it is.

"So, being able to do something positive and meaningful to honour the fighting spirit of the Anzacs and the Australian and New Zealanders since who have served and died defending our freedom would lift the spirits of all Australians, bringing our spirits together in remembrance - while protecting our most cherished and vulnerable by staying apart.

"Anzac Day is very important to all Australians and New Zealanders, but equally to residents throughout Scone and Muswellbrook.

"I was born and raised in Scone, while my 102-year-old nanna, uncles and aunts have lived in town all their lives.

"So, I know how much it means to everyone.

"Let's show ourselves and the world that even in the worst of times the fighting spirit of the Anzacs lives on.

"And, 'at the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them. Lest we forget'."
