Grave Marker
Grave of Joseph Patrick Taylor at Schoonselhof Cemetery at Wilrijk (Antwerp, Belgium). I went to visit the grave of Joseph Patrick Taylor after I met a Canadian couple at Talbot House in Poperinge (Belgium) in May 2017. They told me they wanted to collect as many pictures of fallen soldiers in Europe and Joseph Patrick was one of them but weren't able to visit him. When I told them I live near the border in Antwerp region I was more than happy to help them so today, 23rd September 2017, I drove over there telling Joseph Patrick people are still thinking of him, I sure do!, and thanked him for my freedom because of the offer he made together with so many of his fellowmen. Kind regards, Tom Willaert, Ossenisse, The Netherlands
