October 5th
Would have been our 56th anniversary
For my dear first wife Linda and I
Sadly passing away fourteen years ago
Still in my thoughts, I still cry
Every year when October rolls around
Reminded of what we both had shared
Five great children and a lifetime of love
The joys, the heartaches, the care
I'll never forget you, my very first love
Till my final last day on earth
Thank you my sweetest darling Linda
For a lifetime of joy and mirth
