Memories of Dad
We will take this special moment
To turn our thoughts to Dad
Thank him for the home he gave
For all the things we had.
We think about the fleeting years
Too quickly, gone for good
It seems like only yesterday
We’d go back there if we could.
A time when Dad was always there
No matter what the weather.
Always strong when things went wrong
He held our lives together
He strived so hard from day to day
And never once complained.
With steady hands, he worked so hard
And kept the family name.
He taught us that hard work pays off
You reap just what you sow.
He said that if you tend your crops,
Your field will overflow.
Our lives have been bountiful
He taught us how to give
In his firm and steadfast way
He taught us how to live.
Dad dwells among the angels now
We miss him everyday
He glides across a golden field
And in our memories he will stay.
Love and Missed Everyday
Your family.
