Stories of hope

My uncle is a wonderful angel

He was a special gift from God

But then the time came when we said farewell

We’ll always remember his promenades.

We have many different traditions

My Uncle was very well known, it’s true

When June comes we give him recognition

That he love the colors red, white, and blue.

He would always carry a Bible too

He was thought of as a very gentle giant

To get different signatures from you

I know that he was somewhat defiant.

I will remember him and his vision

An angle above now on a mission.
