A local family have made an emotional trip to Italy to visit the grave of a relative killed during the Second World War.

Albert Lyttle, orginally from the Edenderry area of Portadown, but with a large family now living in the Lurgan area, was a member of the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers who fought and died at the age of just 23 on April 8, 1944. He died during the Battle of Anzio.

His wife, Margaret, better known as Peggy, had never been able to make the trip to Italy to see where he was buried in Cassino War Cemetery. Neither had his children - Olive and Ronnie - who have since passed away.
