He never looked for praise,
He was never one to boast.
He just went on quietly working for the ones he loved the most.
His dreams not often spoken and his needs were very few.
And most of the time his worries and fears went unspoken too.
He was a foundation, a mentor, and a steadfast supporter.
An honest man that any one of us could turn to
When times were good or bad with a listening ear.
One of our greatest blessings will be a man we'll hold dear.
We love you Papa.
