John Joseph MOLE


MOLE. In loving memory of Sig.-sgt. J. J. Mole, killed in action in Belgium, 3rd October, 1916. Just three years ago we parted, Determination in his clear, grey eyes. Now a golden chord is severed, And our hopes in ruin lie. We shall meet but we shall miss him,   There will be one vacant chair. We shall linger to caress him While we breathe our evening prayer. Inverted by his loving mother, brothers, and sisters.

John Joseph MOLE, son of John MOLE and Minnie (nee FORSTER)
