Clipping from the Daily Mail, courtesy of Rae Shaw.

It is undated, but is probably from around mid-May, 1943, given that it was quoted in another newspaper later that month: http://gwulo.com/node/12942

Thanks to Rae for this newspaper clipping that mentions her father, R E Jones, serving onboard HMS Oswald, a submarine. It says he was heading from Singapore to Hong Kong.

Date is a guess.

Here is more about the O-class submarines: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odin-class_submarine

Newspaper clipping of R E Jones memorial service

Submitted by David on Fri, 2013-06-14 09:57
Date picture taken (to nearest decade for older photos): 
1957

Clippings from the local newspapers reporting on the memorial service held for R E Jones. Courtesy of Jones' daughter Rae.

We're not sure of the exact date that the service was held. I've looked through online copies of the China Mail for July & August 1957 (Jones died on 7th July 1957), but couldn't find any matches. Either I missed it, it wasn't reported, or the service was held later in the year.
