Photo of Stewart Laurie
This is my Great Uncle Stewart Laurie. He was my Grandmother's brother. He was married in England prior to the Dieppe Raid. I have been learning lots about him since I was very small. Please use this picture as a last respect for him. He was killed by a sniper in the retreat.

DIEPPE CANADIAN WAR CEMETERY (HAUTOT-SUR-MER) Seine-Maritime, France
From the centre of Dieppe take the Avenue Gambetta and Avenue des Canadiens. Head along the N27 out of Dieppe in the direction of Rouen until the first roundabout where there is a Commonwealth War Graves Commission sign. Go across the roundabout and continue until you reach a second roundabout. Take the first turning right where there is another CWGC sign. Continue until Chemin des Jonquilles, a road on the left. The Dieppe Canadian War Cemetery is on the right of this road and is clearly visible.
