A Lasting Impression
I hardly knew him,
but I loved that little man.
He sat a few rows forward
and slightly to our left.
Every Sunday morning,
I looked for Ron and Barb.
I watched him smile,
and raise his arms in praise.
I waited to hear his hearty
"Amen!" to the Pastor's words,
and was never disappointed.
When he became ill, and his
place on the pew was empty,
there was a void in my heart.
There must have been one
in Heaven without him.
