Individual Note

"I now remember where his, and presumably his wife's, graves are. Hidden right among a clump of Holly which has grown up. There was just one lone young holly tree growing right beside one of the Gravestones. I asked Jack one day whether he would like me to pull it up. He said to leave it, and now, about 40 years later, they completely obliterate those graves." - MRD Feb 2019
