Helen Sharratt-Turland
I visited your grave with my father, Charles William Turland, 53rd Worcestershire Yeomanry. Our visit was very sad. Dad remembered the day you were killed by a mortar shell in your forward observer position. Dad lost an arm in Normandy and has joined you in heaven. I have a photo of you 211 Battery (in Pegasus Museum). You are in the second row at the front. My father and Donald Bowers, who is buried in Ranville Cemetery are there too. I will always remember you. RIP
