They are both buried in the Canadian War Cemetery at Bretteville-sur-Laize in Normandy. 'They did not grow old, we that were left grow old/Age has not wearied not the years condemned./At the going down of the sun and in the morning,/ We have remembered them.' - William and Ruth Herridge and Family.
