Hi Ben,
I am happy to hear you enjoyed your holidays with your
family.
Thanks to Kay Mitchell I am sending for the
certificate from the government she told us about in her E-mail. Leo's
first name was Domenico so it will be sent under that name of course. He was my
HERO and should at least have this nice looking certificate for our family to
enjoy.
Best wishes to all. I really enjoy your daily E-mails
as it keeps us in touch.

Dear Ben,
I am sending the photos of the ceremonies.
You can see Maria as she is welcoming the assembly in the church of St Jacques,
Father Radermecker praying for Don Fraser, the ceremonies at St Monument and
Logbiermé. In Logbiermé, you can read the names of the US soldiers on the
crosses (I hope).
Many people attended the Mass of Souvenir and the
ceremonies. You were all in our hearts. Warm regards. Irma
