| What a sad, but lovely story, Mary. But how wonderful that 1966, Harold, has now been immortalised in your story. Your family won't forget that young man now. There are so many young men who died in that war, and other wars, that are never brought home or remembered. So sad. I'm so glad you found out about him, the little bits about him getting drunk, improper dress, makes him more that just a number lying in a grave somewhere in a Canadian cemetry in France. Well done, my friend. Sandra xx
