Notes

In loving memory of my dear husband Sylvester Thomas Cook who was killed in action 9 April 1917.

Lost to sight, but to memory dear
From our happy home and circle
God has taken one we loved;
Borne away from pain and sorrow
To a nobler rest above.

From his Wife and Children, Betty and Ronnie, also his Mother, Father, Sisters and Brothers.
18 Blind Lane, Chippenham.
