"I’ve finished life’s chores assigned to me, so put me on a shore for I am free. Please send along my fishing pole, for I’ve been invited to the fishing hole. Where everyday is a day to fish, to fill your heart with every wish. Don’t worry, or feel sad for me, I am fishing and where I’m supposed to be. We will miss each other for a while, but you will come and bring your smile. That won’t be long you will see, till we’re together you and me. To all of those that think of me, be happy for I am free. If others wonder why I’m missin’ just tell em I’ve gone fishin’. "
