The Taylor sisters have been in Ypres on November 11 for years to honor their grandfather, but this time it is extra special for them. “This year they found our great-grandfather’s badge of honor. We have been looking for years and today my sister will pin it on. I will wear his medal and that is a great honor for me,” says Ginette Taylor.
The Poppy Parade ends at the Menin Gate. There, the Taylor sisters laid a wreath of flowers for their great-grandfather. He died on July 1, 1917 and is mentioned on the Menin Gate.
