To Daddy… born a humble man,
who loved the land he knew,
who shared his bounty endlessly,
with convictions, strong and true.

To Daddy… beloved, father and friend,
who lived to nourish our days,
with encouragement in every dream,
by giving and with praise.

To Daddy… ‘til we meet again,
where in God’s love you wait,
hand in hand with those we love,
inside of Heaven’s gate.
