You entered
my life in a casual way.
And saw at
a glance what I needed,
There were
others who passed me or met me each day,
But never
a one of them heeded.
Perhaps you
were thinking of other folks more,
Or chance
simply seemed to decree it;
I know there
were many such chances before,
But the others
- well, they didn't see it.
You said just
the things that I wished you would say.
And you made
me believe that you meant it;
I held up
my head in the old gallant way,
And resolved
you should never repent it.
There are
times when encouragement means such a lot,
And a word
is enought to convey it;
There were
others who could have, as easy as not -
But, just
the same, they didn't say it.
Thank you
for being a friend to me when needing someone there -
my failing
hopes to bolster and my secret fears to share.
Thank you
for being so good to me when it was hard to know -
the wisest
course to follow, what to do and where to go.
Thank you
for giving me confidence when I had lost my way -
speaking the
words that led me through the tunnel of the day.
Thank you
for all you did and said to ease the weight for me -
Never intruding,
but there in the background, helping quietly.
Thank you
not only for sympathy in times of grief and stress -
but for all
you have meant to me in terms of happiness.
Many a good
times we've know and many a laugh we've had -
Thank you
for being the kind of friend that shared the good and the bad.
A faithful
friend is a sturdy shelter;
he who finds
one finds a treasure.
You Herb were
that good friend
and the day
I met you I knew I had found a great treasure.
Herb passed
away on February 5, 2005
He will be
much missed by his family and friends.
He was one
heck of a carpenter and one great friend.
MAY HE REST
IN PEACE.
Herb and Millie
