Kind words said,
A little too late.
After his entry -
Through the 'Pearly-Gate'.
Sitt'n in the church,
Listen'n to what they say.
Things he'd a like to heard,
A bit earlier than today.
Like, about his humorous demeanor,
His honest, friendly manner.
How he took the worst of life in stride,
And thoroughly enjoyed a little cheerful banter.
Well, now he's gone,
And we're a little worse for wear.
Didn't know he had so many friends,
That would gather 'round to say a prayer.
Take a small flower to remember.
Toss a little dirt in the hole.
God, I loved this man.
Please dear Lord, bless his soul.
