A gift from God that now stands still,
An unfortunate event, no it is not fair but god’s will.
To understand is a trying concept that will anger and tear to your soul,
For time given and taken in life resides outside comprehension but takes a toll.
Remembering his love shown through simple tasks that were bestowed upon his posterity,
A mental list of love and Grace through providing, caring, service and a ritual of making the bed every morning just for clarity.
A foundation for Family, friends done through a gentle push with direction so selfless without lecture,
Loving life dismissing any spotlight given to him by others never wanting to be in the metaphoric picture.
Extending a work ethic taught to any willing to learn by example throughout life’s tenure,
Never wavering in his ability to stop and learn as a father and a Husband through family trials weathered.
His existence in life has touched so many with experiences that extend throughout his journey,
Remembering those experiences will be our job now until God calls him home for eternity.
For the one constant that still stands that has been shared by all from the very start,
Was the tender mercy he gifted to all, and for his family the love of a Patriarch.
We Love you Uncle Jim!
