Poem
What an honorable man. Dependable. Dedicated. Up Right in his stand. A beautiful man who is the gate keeper for us all. He has provided the love. Support. Also wisdom to his young prince. His young princess's applied individually. His Role as King in our lives. Rightfully deserved from all us who knew him. He taught us to be accountable for one another. Grandaddy did not play with you. When it came to being angry with our sister or brother. He held on to us all. Grandaddy make it perfectly clear. This is how he showed true love for us all. He spent more time in our character building. Teaching us about: Honesty. Not to steal. To stay away from drugs. True life survival skills is what he taught. Granddaddy knew we would have set-backs. Plenty trials. Granddaddy would always say. “When you fall”. “Get back up, brush yourself off”. He never spent time downing us. Granddaddy's time was dedicated. To showing us how to get back up. Again and again. Visionary who saw the future long before it got here. Granddaddy prepared us well. He was perfect in our eyesight. Spectacular role model. Granddaddy guided us through. With plenty of grace. Plenty of wisdom. He was our daddy who always had the time. He was our Hero who always provided us, a home big enough to hold us all. Larger than life was our granddaddy. His beautiful smile. His very kind heart was the cord of love that kept, our family together. Granddaddy we will always love you forever. Granddaddy you were our everything. Granddaddy thank you for being our King. Dedicated: To my granddaddy. Fred Douglass Demory Sr.
