Biography contributed by Faithe Jones

FOWLER. — In loving remembrance of my dear brother, Private Joseph Harold Fowler, born at Hednesford, England, and departed this life at Malta June 27th, 1916, aged 32 years.
Brother is gone but not forgotten,
Nor the smiles of his dear face,
Sweetest thoughts shall ever linger
Around our darling brother's grave.
Inserted by his eldest sister, May Langenberg, Woonona.
