Poem submitted by his daughter:

You may have thought I didn’t see,

Or that I hadn’t heard,

Life lessons that you taught me,

But I got every word.

Perhaps you thought I missed it all,

And that we’d grow apart,

Without you Dad, I wouldn’t be

The (woman) I am today;

You built a strong foundation

No one can take away.

I’ve grown up with your values,

And I’m very glad I did;

So here’s to you, dear father,

From your forever grateful daughter
