It was a wonderful Life?

It was a wonderful life
That’s what George would say
Sitting here with us today
There’s nothing I’d change
No, I don’t believe so,
Because if I did?
Some of you I’d not know

To thy own self be true
That’s exactly dear loved ones
And Friends what I’d do
I would get up at sunrise
To chase a little white ball
Or to take out my boat
When the Marlin would call?

My rocking chair
Was my personal throne
With my cat ‘socks? at my feet
I was never alone?
A new house, my dream
I was so proud
Living large and out loud

But what’s most important?
That is easy to pick,
For I know deep inside
What made me thick?
Two incredible children,
Who without them you see,
The man you knew?
I could not be

Twelve grandchildren
Who made me laugh
Five from my side?
Seven from my better half
Plus three more kids
From my bride
There was never a place to hide

A mom who showed
How much she cared
And friends whose lives
They always shared?
I got the chance
To mentor many
Incredible memories, horn of plenty

One lifetime, no expiration date
Blessed by God’s grace,
With a perfect soul-mate
Debra, who knew the private man
My partner, my love?
Doing all that she can

It was a wonderful life
So no tears should you cry,
Though no physical body
I really didn’t die?
One foot in heaven,
And my arm around you,
Feel my spirit?know that it’s true!

*From all those who knew and loved you,
will miss you George?you were ?one of a kind?
