When I was told the news about you I thought it could not be true A huge pain of loss struck my heart knowing that we are now worlds apart As we say goodbye to you today we all have tear in our eyes Even though you made it clear you would not want us to cry This may be the end of your long life go an reunite with your darling wife she has been waiting a while for you to arrive at the place you deny - the afterlife You will be in our hearts forever along with the memories that we shared together The head of the family has now gone but even though you'll deny it your spirit lives on.
