Personal Stories
My great uncle
Corporal Thomas Raymond Gibson was my great uncle. I don't know a lot about him and never meet him. My grandmother said he was a great person to be around and that he always wanted to follow in his fathers footsteps. His father was Privite Fredrick Albert Gibson. I will keep these stories close for my children to one day learn of what they both did
