A deeply personal inscription from a mother whose son is buried 10,000 miles away from his home in Geelong, Australia. She uses her son's headstone to send him a private message of grief and longing. 'Nobody knows but me Mother', even though the form confirming the inscription was signed by her husband, John's father.
