Canada / Re: Mr R. Trowsdale of Vancouver

Seeking a jpeg of the headstone of Mr R. Trowsdale of Vancouver born in Pembrokeshire. He died in Vancouver on the 18 July 1940 and buried there with full military honours on the 22nd July 1940.
Mr Trowsdale served with the Canadian Expeditionary Force during W.W. 1 and took part in the brilliant Canadian Vimy campaign. I understand he was in the “Fifth Battalion”, but do not know what regiment. Prior to his leaving for Canada he had worked on a local newspaper.
Any assistance appreciated, I can assist widely in Pembrokeshire where required.
