30 years ago today...
my father passed away.

Although never seeing his children grow,
He gave us wonderful footsteps to follow.

He couldn't be here and that makes me sad,
Although he left us with Jehovah I am glad.

He didn't see us in our lives,
Yet his love for us we feel inside.

He never met his grand kids 3,
But proud of them I'm sure he'd be.

Loosing dad, I deeply felt robbed,
And at times even now it makes my heart sob.

It was often hard and I felt empty and alone,
yet Jehovah never left me by the love he has shown.

The strength to endure comes from above,
The resurrection promise comes from God's love.

It won't be long now we will be reunited,
A glorious day we will be so excited.

I can't wait for the day to hug him again,
and introduce him to my family and friends.

Jehovah's love has gotten me through...
all these hard times and good times too.

I have one wish for all my family to be,
welcoming dad back will be something to see.

We have God's written word with promises for us all,
We must live by them daily and strive not to fall.

Don't tire out for soon we will see,
What REAL Paradise will really be.

I'm not sure how to end this so I will just say,
Thank you for support on this anniversary day.
