Time has changed in many ways,
But one thing changes never;
The memory of those happy days,
When we were all together.
(Inserted by his loving brother Len and sister-in-law.)
NINYETTE.—In loving memories of our beloved father, John, of the 2/7th Bn., killed in action, N.G., May 11, 1945.
Inserted by loving son and daughter,
John and Edna.
God saw the way was weary,
The hill too steep to climb,
So He clasped our darling Daddy's hand
And whispered, peace be thine.
NINYETTE.—ln proud memories of our beloved brother, John, of the 2/7th Bn., killed in action, N.G., May 11, 1945. Inserted by loving brothers.
A beautiful memory dearer than gold,
A brother whose worth can never be told,
A loving smile, a happy face,
A broken link we can never replace.
NINYETTE.—As years go by memories will be with us forever of our loving brother John, of the 2/7th Bn., killed in action, May 11, 1945. Inserted by loving sisters.
We have lost but heaven has gained
The dearest brother this world contained.
NINYETTE.—In proud memories of our loving nephew John, of the 2/7th Bn., killed in action, N.G., May 11, 1945; beloved cousin of Jeanett, Fay and Ernie. Inserted by loving Aunty Daisy and Uncle Ernie.
A wonderful nephew laid to rest,
For each and all he did his best,
His love was great, his heart was true,
What a beautiful memory to leave behind.
