This poem is in memoriam
Daddy,
It's been a year, since you passed away,
Not one day goes by, without relief from this pain.
I miss you so, my friend, and brother,
The greatest daddy one could ever muster.
The memories of you, so ill, remain quite fresh,
But I am beginning to recall the days of old.
When you laughed and sang, played and loved.
You were always there to wipe away my tears
And kiss my shin when I fell down.
You were simply, a perfect Dad.
Today, I think of you in hockey gear, at the cottage and on your bus.
I remember Florida sunsets and Virgina winds.
I see clearly the way you and mommy always held hands.
When I think upon you, nearly everyday, I remember most what it was, you used to say,
"Remember Jesus, he loves you Pammy. Remember what Jesus did, everyday".
My redeemer, my King and brother too, was what you taught Me,
To trust and do.
So from this day forth, I will recall the hope in Resurrection you instilled,
I will grieve no more, for my sorrow has turned to joy.
I cry sometimes, but that's okay because I know that you are at
Rest and play, within His arms, our loving God.
The time has come to move along, not to look back, but forward still,
Until the day we're together again.
Happy Anniversary, one year with Jesus.
Say hi to mommy, nana, papa, grandma and grandpa too.
I miss you all so deeply and true.
But soon will be together again, 'cause that is what God has promised.
So I will remember what you have said and continue trusting in the
Lord again.
With my eternal love, your daughter,
Pamela
