'exceptional,' His Benchmark
Integrity, his middle name
'Tops' was his trademark
Scrupulous in all he did
'Exceptional,' his benchmark
Low maintenance for every boss he'd had
Beloved of his Mom and Dad
When he married the girl next door
They cut a rug on the banquet floor...
Two years later, their marriage shattered
His wife's emotions lay in tatters
All she'd wanted was affection ~
All he demanded was perfection
