[QUOTE="WRandallD, post: 60442, member: 37987"] My name is W. Randall Doyle. William "Billy" Bensch was the uncle I never met, but my mother, Billy's sister, Dorothy Geraldine Bensch (Doyle) (12/20/1924 - 4/07/2016) spoke of him proudly and affectionately. Billy was killed by a German sniper a little over two weeks and about 20 some miles into Nazi-occupied France, after the D-Day invasion. He was a part of the 82nd AB Div. which parachuted into St. Mere-Eglise (Normany) France. He was originally interred in France, but was re-interred (as you have seen) near Buffalo sometime between 1945 and 1952. My mom was aware of your mom, as she spoke of Billy's engagement and of a ring having been purchased. My greatest sympathies to your mom. [/QUOTE]
