Today we've come to grieve and mournA
And yes we're saddened our hearts are tornA
-
But even in our state of griefB
To some degree we have reliefB
-
Having to witness the deteriorationC
Of a man who was always an inspirationC
-
Progressive Dimentia consumed our dadD
Confused angry lost and sadD
A diminished capacity was all we hadD
-
Yet as he faded into despairE
His strength and goodness was evident thereE
-
So many things he could no longer rememberF
Yet recognized the faces of every family memberF
-
No matter what his symptoms broughtG
For the recognition of our faces he bravely foughtG
-
Yes today we may cry outH
Dear Lord what's this loss aboutH
-
Perhaps its so that we can seeI
By his death he's been set freeI
No more illness suffering or painJ
He is healed and whole againK
-
Eventhough we may be sadD
Let's Remember the blessed life he hadD
-
So what are the momeries thatL
resonatesM
The comeradery he shared with Rugby matesM
-
Not much rythm when it came to danceN
But he'd show you his moves if you gave him a chanceN
-
The humorous Eddie that everyone knowsO
Especially when playing his dominosO
-
But most of all let it be toldP
An admired respected head of his householdP
-
A devoted father to all of usQ
Whose wisdom and guidance we knew we could trustR
-
For years he committed his lifeS
To unconditionally loving his wifeS
-
Through it all our God knew bestT
It was simply time to bring Dad restT
