After walking around some of the 160 graveyards and fields in the town of Ieper, the town closest to Flanders field, I realized that i was fortunate not to have anyone in my known family killed in the first or second world war. Aja’s Papa, however, lost a brother at the battle of Normandy... so we got a small wooden cross with a poppy on it and wrote Roderick’s name on it to honour his life and the sacrifice of his family...
