For my father, my friend,
This to me you have always been,
Through the good times and bad,
Your understanding I have had.
A gentle man at heart,
This sets you apart,
From the others I’ve seen,
You mean so much to me.
The laughter we have shared,
Cannot be compared,
The tears I have shed,
As you lovingly nodded your head,
You have always been there,
With a smile and a hug,
A precious gift from our God up above.
The times that I have been down and sad,
Your silly ways could always make me glad.
You gave me strength to carry on,
Even when all hope seemed to be gone,
The lessons in life that I have learned,
Are from your genuine love and concern.
With deep appreciation for all you have done,
You, Dad, are my number one.
With all my love, your daughter, your friend.
From your loving daughter Karen, son-in-law Kevin, grandchildren Stuart and Laura, and your lovely great-grandchildren xxxxxx.
