DALE

Dear brother, killed by a drunken driver senselessly:
A man of intellect and integrity was he.
Loved by many, he was our family’s pride.
Ever in our memories does dear Dale abide.

I well remember talks with you about Dale. I think he'd smile to know how many poems by you he still lives in. This is nice, Andrea. Love, CayCay
