- Notes: Spencer was engaged to my grandmother Vera Saunders. He gave her a gold ring with 3 round diamonds.
Vera was devastated when Spencer was killed on the Western Front.
When Vera married my grandfather in 1924, Spencer’s ring was converted to a brooch which she wore. She continued to commemorate Spencer’s life and lay flowers in his memory.
My grandfather had also been at the Western Front and his brother died there about the same time as Spencer and is buried at Villers Bretonneux.

My sister Anne was at Villers Bretonneux recently for the centenary and lay roses at the graves of Spencer and our great uncle. When Anne revisited the graves 2 days later, one of the roses at Spencer’s grave was carefully placed in the soil and she wondered if one of Spencer’s family members had also visited the grave. As Anne was taking a photo of Spencer’s grave a young man stopped to look at the grave and his shadow appears across the headstone.

I wore Vera’s diamond brooch on my wedding day and later had it converted back to Spencer’s ring which I have worn for nearly thirty years with my wedding and engagement rings.
It is a constant reminder of Spencer’s ultimate sacrifice and Spencer lives on in our family’s memory.
