To Sharon

These days I see you in so much pain And I want so much to help you To bring and release the healing rain And show you that you’re not a fool I looked up to you every day At times I would never leave your side We would always laugh, poke fun, and play Until we got hurt and lost our pride Remembering the days we spent together You have always been the funny and lovely Though best times cannot last forever You never fail to touch our family When Dad was down you lifted him high Making him compliment himself You made him smile and you got him to try To fix his saddened health When Mom was not in the best of spirits You cheered her up with mirth Whenever there was gloom you were there to cure it Bringing happiness to the earth You and Charles always cracked me up In your little, cheerful ways Getting him to laugh, bringing him love Helping him forget the hard times of today You also had much fun with Rob No matter the time of day Making fun of Joe the Slob And the mustard-loving McKay! As for David, he needs you so And so does the dear Kalona babe David loves you more than we know We all do all the same Oh…and of course your Andrew Will always love you too After all, you are the love of his life You are so beautiful and true Why else would you agree to be his wife? Surely not because he’s a weird, retarded leprechaun on crack? Okay, I take that back I shouldn’t be talking smack

There is no higher praise for friendship, for those who support us, carry us through the tough times, and multiply or joyful moments, than to honor them with such poignant word. Bravo - Chuck
