Please give your father my sincere thanks.

As a matter of my own interest. Could Willie Arseneault, be Emile Joseph Arseneault, of the North Shore Regt, buried at Holten Canadian War Cemetery??? It is the only Arseneault I could find buried in Holland.
Sorry for the long delay to reply. No Willie Arseneault is buried in a cemetery near Zwolle (I will have to ask my father exactly where). I have a picture taken by a Dutch photograph in 2005 of my father crying in front of Willie tomb stone.
