Taken To Soon

TAKEN TO SOON

A piece of my heart died today.
Benny left us here cause he couldn't stay.
There was so many things he wanted to say.
We will all miss him while he's on heavens way.
He was so funny and had a great smile.
Telling us jokes was just his style.
He was a wonderful son and a loving dad.
If he was your friend he was the best you ever had.
Micheal,Geno,Buddy,Daniel,Kevin,Dustin the list is so long.
Now all of his friends will have to stay strong.
His life wasn't long but he left us three treasure's.
Ashley,Morgan,Daniel his love for them can't be measured.
We all will always love and miss you Benny.
From all your friends there are so many.
In loving memory of Benjamin Joseph Hamilton  Born 08/03/76 Died 11/23/11

Loss is personal ... we do share through the poem though ... but the poem of tribute is universal in appeal ... so nice ...
