'He died that we might live'. These are the words chosen by George's mother to be inscribed on his headstone in Canada Farm Cemetery, Belgium. Sadly my Great Grandmother would never have the opportunity of visiting her youngest son's grave but I and his present day family had the honour of standing beside his grave on the 100th Anniversary of his death.

George was killed whilst operating his gun when a German shell landed close to his battery position, he was only 24 years old.

Lest we forget.
