Today a man we honor
Today a life we celebrate
A simple humble spirit
With a legacy so great
Your legacy is service
Selfless service was your way
So many simple acts of service
A contribution every day
Your legacy is kindness
A heart of simple
charity
Your smile a cherished gift
Offered with
generosity
Your legacy is humbleness
Humble grace and dignity
Never seeking recognition
Unassuming you would be
Your legacy is love
A love for people plain to see
Perhaps at times unspoken
But present unmistakably
We salute you as a loving father
We salute you as a loving friend
We salute you as a loving husband
With a wife so loyal to the end
We salute
you as a loving brother
And as an uncle all adore
As a loving cherished cousin
No one could ever ask for more
So as we celebrate your time with us
Knowing your work in life is done
We acknowledge all you’ve been
for us
And say at last, well done
