~TO MY GREAT GRANDPA~

ALTHOUGH I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WELL

A PLACE IN MY HEART YOU

ALWAYS FILLED

THOUGH MANY WORDS WEREN'T

SPOKEN

OUR LOVE FOR EACH OTHER WAS

NEVER BROKEN


AND EVEN NOW THAT YOU ARE GONE

MY MEMORIES OF YOU ARE

VERY STRONG

ALL THE THINGS YOU TAUGHT ME

AND ALL THE SMILES WE SHARED

LEAVES ME WITH THE SENSE

OF KNOWING THAT YOU

CARED

FOR WHEN THAT SAD PHONE CALL

WAS RECEIVED

AND WE LEFT OUR HOME ONLY

TO GRIEVE

I KNOW NOW THAT YOU ARE

NO LONGER IN PAIN

BUT PRAISING THE LORD

IN HIS MIGHTY REIGN
