Dad's Obituary


Here is the poem I wrote for the inside of my Dad's Obituary:

To my Family

No more pain, no more sorrow
no more worrying about tomorrow
Heaven is my home.

I fought as hard as I could,
my family I did not want to leave,
but God said enough is enough
and my soul he did receive.

I will miss my beautiful wife
who I've loved for 53 years,
you did all you could so baby no more tears.

My daughter and grandchildren,
I love you with all my heart.
Let not your spirit be too heavy,
I will always be with you right in your heart.

To my buddies,
who cared about me til the end,
it was a joy to spend time with you
and call each of you a friend.

Although my address has now changed
and we no longer share physical space,
don't feel bad about this because
I am in a better place.

Just hold on to your memories of me,
they will keep me near and continue
to live and I will see you when you get here.

Chuck.....
