Samuel's Story
The last photo taken of Samuel before he lost his life in France in September 1916. Samuel was my great grandfather he left behind a wife and a nine month old daughter Marjorie who never had the chance to know her father. I like to think that at as long as we observe Remembrance Day his sacrifice will not be forgotten.
