Today would've been his birthday but he didn't survive.
If John hadn't died, today he would've turned fifty-five.
He started by smoking pot and then he decided to start doing Meth.
That stuff is nasty and it didn't surprise me when it caused his death.
John angered some people because he stole from them.
When he died because of drugs, it was both sad and grim.
I'm very sorry that he died even though he stole from me.
He can never steal or do drugs again because he's gone for eternity.
[Dedicated to John W. Brown (1970-2019) who died on June 3, 2019]
I'll always remember the vows we made on that Special Day,
I promised that I would Love, Honour and Obey.
As I look back on these years just one thing comes to mind
If I had searched the whole wide world,a better Man I wouldn't find.
You were the starlight in my eyes,the reason for my life,
You gave me five beautiful children when I became your wife,
You made me laugh,you made me cry you gave me Comfort too,
I know I wasn't perfect but I tried very hard for you.
If I could have just one wish I know what it would be
That all the lovers in the world could be as happy as you and me.
I Miss you so much Darling, life will never be the same,
But the love and all the memories will forever remain.
So on this very special day my thoughts are all of you,
I know that you will give me the love and strength to carry through.
One day my Darling I will kiss ?? and hold you tight,
Until then My Darling Mike you'll be my guiding light ??.
God bless you Darling

Why I Plan to Skip My 55th Class Reunion
By Elton Camp
We were “The Ones Who Really Rate”
That is to say, “Senior Class of 58”
At the 50th reunion, I got a bad surprise
I found that I couldn’t believe my eyes
It made me gasp and then almost choke
To see all those ugly looking old folk
Some too senile even to recognize me
Five years later, I’ll just let them be
I’m glad to say I’ve remained the same
The way most of them aged is a shame
Another reunion, why even try?
I think I’ll just pass this one by
