Thank YOU MARK for posting these photos for me ... what a wonderful idea to add the extra with the headstone from Beby-Sur-Mer. It's SO wonderful to finally see a photo after all this time, isn't it?
Edward was only 19 at the time of this photo. He was 21 on June 8, 1944 when his life was taken.

Thank YOU GEOFF ... THIS is the photo that Geoff will be taking with him to lay at my Uncles resting place, right in front of the Headstone you see here, in June when he attends the 60th Anniversary Ceremonies in Normandy. This mans SO much to me Geoff, but Iknow that YOU and everyone else understands that.

BLESS YOU BOTH for everything, and on behalf of RFMN EDWARD SMITH ... THANK YOU FOR CARING!

From the Heart and with Gratitude,

Carman
