  • Grave Marker– I ran across Sgt. Winskill's grave at Lowther Church/Cemetery in June 2007 and the fact he was Canadian caught my attention, so I took a photograph.  I thought someone might be interested in it.  It is Remembrance Day and I do remember....THANK YOU to all the Veterans for giving me my freedom!
