Representing mothers of Canadian soldiers who died in combat, Candy Greff of Lacombe, Alberta has been named the Silver Cross Mother for 2022.
Her son, MCpl. Byron Greff, was the last Canadian soldier to die in Afghanistan. Good at hockey, mischievous, and goal-oriented — Byron signed up for cadets as a teenager, even though his family had no history of serving in the military.
Global National's Dawna Friesen speaks with Candy about her heartfelt memories of her son, and the heavy burden she is honoured to bear this Remembrance Day.
