Farewell & Goodbye

No words can ever express,

How much your loved & dearly missed.

Although our paths lead us apart,

You never ever left my heart.

I wrote this poem just for you,

And also for our family too.

A Son,Brother,Husband,Uncle & Father,

A true friend as well that you could never bother.

You loved Puzzles,Nascar,Fishing & Country,

Even jumping on the phone to win us a Thanksgiving Turkey.

Our brother Mark was the one who found you,

And boy the trouble you two could do.

But it was all good and best friends began,

I'm sure Mark would do it all again.

You and sis Tammi now that was a pair,

Thick as thieves smiling always from ear to ear.

Tammi was your biggest fan,

She always said Mike is a very good man.

Our memories will forever last,

We all smile when we think of you tweaking your stash.

You'll always be with me I know this to be true,

Watching, guarding, our son's Robert,Chris, & Shaun too.

Remember the time your took them to school,

And make the truck back fire boom boom.

Oh how I know they'll miss there dad,

But they'll never forget the fun they had.

We send our hugs & kisses to you,

Please find our Mom & give her lots too.

We love you now,

We loved you then,

We know one day we will see you again.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this poem year's ago after the death of my ex-husband. This was to a memory of the man he once was. Life changes, choices made, not always for the better. I have forgiven but will not forget. To say goodbye and go on for the Kids, Family & Myself.
