Dearest Dad

Since you passed away

we miss you more each and every day

you helped us through the good times and through the bad

the best friend any one could possibly of ever  had

you stood by us through thick and thin

no matter what we wanted to do

we may forget many things in our life time

but dearest dad we wont  ever forget you.


my dad was my best friend, His faith kept him strong, Just like Job whatever the world threw 
at him he bounced back even stronger than before, and although this is not a poem of 
faith, my dad in his own way showed me a glipms of our   father in Heaven the true loving 
father of us all, even when we make mistakes  he will still there no matter what he is waiting 
for us all. It's never too late to come home to the Lord he has his arms open wide to 
welcome you.
