Thoughts
We
gather here with heavy hearts, to say farewell, today.
To one whos been there, by our side, and helped us on our
way.
The
lessons that we learned by you , Will remain within our
hearts,
As if those things you taught us, were carved on granite charts,
So
many things we remember, the values that you shared,
The love you showed, your sincerity, and knowing that you cared.
To
reach your hand, to others, and make them feel desired,
You never said, not today, even when you were tired.
You
always had a simple smile, and something good to say,
No matter what the day or time, you had the time to pray.
Faults
were not an issue, you saw the brighter side,
Youd always know when things were wrong, those, we could
not hide.
You
took the things, that were handed you, and made them work, anew,
Those hands of yours were tools for God, your heart was all his,
too
The
tools we now need daily, just so we can survive
You gave them to us freely, and theyll help us through our
lives.
Enriched
and blessed, are we all, Just because you were there.
And Im thankful to the Father, that with us, you, Hed
share
When
you shouted, Ship Ahoy, We knew your time was near.
We realized then, you were going home, to the place you held, so
dear.
Even
though, we have heavy hearts, and many tears well shed,
We will cling to one another, because we love our Dad.
In
Loving Memory of:
