LIFE STORIES

Faces To Canadian War Graves Groesbeek foundation's mission is to write the life stories of the soldiers of the allied forces buried at the Groesbeek Canadian War Cemetery (in the Netherlands). We have to pay tribute to those young soldiers who lost their lives so far away from home, fighting for our freedom. Behind the scenes, hard work is being done on the realization of this huge project by our Research Team.


Deeply encouraged by the heart-warming reactions of relatives in Canada we get the inspiration to continue. They sometimes even send us complete life stories!

We also get life stories from High Schools (Lest We Forget), individuals and organizations. These contributions are very valuable and greatly appreciated; every contribution means that another soldier has been saved from oblivion.

WE WILL REMEMBER THEM

We have to pay tribute to those young soldiers who lost their lives so far away from home fighting for our freedom.
Especially now most of their comrades are not able to do this any longer.
We would like to recognize every single one of them by a photo and the story of his life, so they will never be forgotten.
