TRIBUTE TO PFC JOE SOUTH
by his sister

"A MARINES MOTHER"



A broken hearted Mother sits alone tonight

Dreaming of her boy who went off to fight

Her mind goes back to twenty three years

To think of her boy now brings her sudden tears

There are many other Mother's who feel the same way

Just dreaming of their Sons in the same sort of way

Her Son has been killed, but his memory lives on

That baby she loved so, now to heaven has gone

We know not why these things have to be

But a broken hearted Mother is touching to see

She grieves for her boy whom God has called home

His picture and her sitting there all alone

She hopes these boy's fighting haven't been all in vain

And in a few years it won't have to be done again

She picks up the picture and gives it a kiss

And say my dear Son, My baby I miss

Our hearts go out to these Mothers today

We know what a price they both had to pay

It is heart breaking for the Mother who lost that Son

I know for I'M a Sister of that Mothers Son.
