Cafodd y gofeb, a luniwyd gan yr artist Lee Odishow, ei hariannu gan gyfraniadau a nawdd cyhoeddus, a chafodd yr ymgyrch drosti ei rheoli ar y cyd rhwng grwpiau cymunedol yng Nghymru a Fflandrys.  Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi gwarantu'r apêl.  Yng Nghymru, cafodd y gwaith trefnu ei arwain gan Peter Carter Jones a hoffwn ddiolch iddo ef a'i gydweithwyr yn y Grŵp Ymgyrchu dros Gofeb y Cymry yn Fflandrys.  Rydw i hefyd am gydnabod y gefnogaeth hael ac agored a gafodd y gofeb gan bwyllgor ymgyrch Fflandrys ynghyd ag awdurdodau trefol Langmark-Poelkapelle a Llywodraeth Fflandrys.
The memorial, designed by artist Lee Odishow, was financed through public subscription and donations and was managed through a collaboration between community groups in Wales and Flanders.  The Welsh Government has acted as underwriter to the appeal.  In Wales the organising work was led by Peter Carter Jones and I would like to pay tribute to him and his colleagues on the Welsh Memorial in Flanders Campaign Group.  I should also like to acknowledge the generous and open support the memorial received from the Flemish Campaign Committee along with the municipal authorities of Langemark-Poelkapelle and the Flanders Government.
