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
