Much older was he,
Than me,
A couple of weeks ago I did of him see,
Such a vibrant man he was in his prime,
God did finally take him, it was his time…
He was my friend Barbara’s dad,
I know she is probably right now quite sad,
And I won’t say that he is “better” off,
With that statement I always did scoff…
Such a headache today I did have,
Not even three Tylenol were a relief salve,
I usually don’t feel this badly when someone passes,
But this gentleman was a special good friend,
I will miss him greatly till comes my time,
In this short life to end…
