Summary
| Description |
English: The Piper Alpha Window, Ferryhill Church, Aberdeen In commemoration of the 167 lives lost in the 1988 disaster on Occidental's Piper Alpha platform in the North Sea. The company held a memorial service in the church. The window was created by Jennifer Jane Bayliss, a member of the congregation. Each of the small circular discs represents a victim of the disaster. At the foot of the window they are red, as the souls of the dead emerge from the flames in the stormy sea. As they rise up the window the colour lightens as the souls rise to Heaven |
