To live in hearts we left behind is not to die

In grateful memory of the sons of this colony who made the supreme sacrifice in the Great War.
1914-1918.

Bahamians: Let this of you be said,
’That you who live are worthy of your dead.’
These gave their lives that you who live, may reap
A richer harvest, ere you fall asleep.

In grateful memory of the sons of this colony who made the supreme sacrifice in World War II.
1939-1945.

'These are the men whom history will acclaim,
The men who never feared to count the cost,
These sons of ours, who need no name,
Who gave their all when everything seemed lost.'

In grateful memory of
Fenrick Andy Sturrup ∙ David Allison Tucker ∙ Edward Arnold Williams ∙ Austin Rudolph Smith
who died in the service of their country in H.M.B.S. Flamingo
10th May, 1980
At the going down of the sun and in the morning we will remember them
