Did you know him?
I did.
He was that kind of real friend
Who told you big
Loved you even bigger
And inspired loyalty
Because he practiced it as a virtue.
Do you have stories with him?
I do.
Rowdy, funny stories
Split your belly laughing
Tell it over and over stories
Because he carried adventure with him.
Did you talk about your faith with him?
I always did.
He loved Our Father
And had great faith
Believed in heaven
And loved to sing praise
Did he love your family?
He did mine.
He joined us years ago
Adopted some of us
More than others
But loved us everyone.
Do you miss him?
Yes, me too.
So much to feel
But we won't fill
His spot
Never.
