Soldat Herbert Charles Hickey
As noted in another caption for Pvt. Hickey, he is buried in Quatre Vents Military Cemetery in France.
This is a picture of part of that cemetery, taken after my daughters had placed a poppy on the headstone of every Canadian soldier buried there. Pvt. Hickey's grave is at the far end of the row that my daughters are standing in front of.
