solved by email from Tina - 09 Oct 2011 - info PATS

Dear Teunis,

My name is Tina Moggridge and I was given your web page details today - 09 Oct 2011
after meeting someone and talking about the war graves in Vollenhove and Blokzijl
I read an item from the family of Jack Gibbs
If you are still in contact with them I was wondering if you could let them know
that every 11th of November my husband and I take poppies to each of the graves
and I do a bible reading to let them know that they are never forgotten
My husband lost his father when he was 6 years old on the 19th June 1944
and this is a time for us to celebrate his father too
We now live in Sint Jansklooster so it is easy for us to visit the graves

Kind regards Tina Moggridge (mrs) - 09 Oct 2011
