  • It was an amazing experience visiting your grave in M.8. "Y" Farm Military Cemetery, Bois Greniers. We were very moved by the whole experience and were humbled by your contribution. I feel very proud of you and my hope is more relatives will visit you in months/years to come. I will never forget my feelings whilst sitting beside you. You died on my birth date which make you more special to me...
