Henry Charles Green, of the Royal Air Force, died November the 8th, 1918. God wanted one more angel to guard his Heavenly throne, and so He took our loved one, and bid us not to mourn; we wanted so to keep him, for he to us was given, but Jesus said it could not be, He wanted him in Heaven. – From his broken-hearted mother, father, grandmother, and sister Lily.” Above is courtesy of Jim Grundy and his facbook pages Small Town Great War Hucknall 1914-1918
