Tha, was so accepting of me from day one. I always respected him and appreciated his position in the family. I am so saddened by his loss. My deepest condolences go out to his family.
I wrote a poem in his honor. I hope it helps his loved ones.
A Patriarch Has Fallen
A Patriarch has fallen..?
No,..A man has risen.
From his earthly prison
To a heavenly position.
Behind,…possessions fall
Ahead,… the golden halls.
Lost,…Sickness and pain
Peace and life eternal he has now claimed.
A shadow,..his memory it may cast.
But behind it, in the sunlight may we bask.
Never,.. toward distress was he driven,…
Hard earned wisdom to our lives he has given.
Tha, May you find your way smoothly and peacefully unto the next plane.
