Entrance to porch: They died that we might live. Rear of porch: By love serve one another. South side: To the glory of God and in loving memory of my husband William George Biggs and of the other dear lads who together with him were members of this choir and congregation. Brethren, remember in the Lord, these our dear brothers who having served their country even unto death do now rejoice, are now comforted now secure now at rest. May we for whom they died and those who come after us, strive to prove worthy of their great sacrifice and with like courage and faithfulness bear our willing share of service for the common good so that when the time of our departure hence shall come, we may have a good hope of rest with them in paradise, and be partakers together of the life of the world to come. God having provided some better thing for us that they without us should not be made perfect. There remaineth therefore a Rest for the people of God. North side: Roll of Honour. Their name liveth for evermore. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
