Dad Died Serving Country

Dad Did Die Why was it really meant to be? Dad did die serving his country Me and my family are left alone Each day when the sun had shone. I am still so lonely each night And sad tears off have to fight Never receiving a one last kiss; Him forever will always miss. It is now another Veterans Day again; My dad was one of many mighty men Who for country had given his all And for him one day God did call. James Serious Mysterious Horn Bolivia, NC Name of Father Arthur Frederick Horn, CPO, AOC, USN USS Aircraft Carrier Intrepid CVA-11 Killed on August 8th, 1956
