THE PRIDE OF A MOTHER:
Today son you take your last journey,
To your final resting place.
Although I couldn't be there I'm there in spirit
As tears run down my face.
How well I remember "Bonanza Square"
That is pictured below.
,
How often I'd visit you there
Just to say "Hello".
Then I remembered your wedding day,
A wonderful day with pride... I wanted to shout.
How you walked me down the aisle
To my seat, a wonderful guesture without doubt.
My thoughts go back even futher
To your pro. footballer's days.
A fine talented player.
Many people singing your praise.
Below is a picture of where you did reside.
Many a wonderful time there I had.
There was one person absent always
Your dear dad.
When I feel better also our weather,
I plan to visit Spain.
To say a final "Goodbye" to you.
For a while we'll be together again.
R.I.P
John would be very touched by your words today. My heart is with you.
