A Son's Tribute To His Father Just Passed

A Son's Tribute (spoken at my Dad's Funeral) A quiet man, A family man, A proud to be a father man. A handy man, A lively man, Not known to be a dandy man. A humble man, Clear thinking man, A need to know what's what man. A warm man, An organized man, A man who had a plan, man. A sailing man, A camping man, I'll do it as I said I would man. A fair man, An I'll be there man, I'll help you if I can man. A deep man, A neat man, A standards keep us straight man. A thinking man, Light drinking man, I have responsibilities man. A technical man, Get things done man, A lovely to see him smile man. A husband man, Love my family man, I'll be there when it matters man. A brother man, An Uncle man, A wonderful Grandad all these years man. A Blackburn man, A Lancashire man, Without a northern accent man. A Rovers fan, Real football man, Legendary goalie in his time man. A gentle man, A driving man, Keep going till we get there man. A homely man, Come on in, kind of man, And now, in our hearts and minds man. A lovely man, A loving man, I'd like to go on, but I don't think I can...
