Crossing the Bar

Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,

But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;

For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may...

A very special Uncle. I will be forever grateful for the inspiration, interest, support and pride you have shown me over the years. I will remember you always and our version of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" will stay with me forever.

Love

Des was not only talented in soccer, he also had a great singing voice so I know Des that you are singing with the angels.

God Bless and keep you.

Des,
Cannot believe it has been 30 years since you coached me as a boy for the S.F. Celtic team. You had such a profound impact on all of us players that it seems like it was just yesterday you had us sprinting around beach Chalet, while we eyed that bag of soccer balls. I am forever grateful for the personal interest you took in me and the impact you had on my game and my life.

I am really going to miss your calls, hearing your voice and having to interpret for my family. ...

Dear Des,
youuu will always have been in my heart!!! I miss you so much...

MaHi, MaHi.

Desi we will miss the calls even if it was to get the scores and critique the game. Lots of water under the bridge in 50 years but we had some great laughs. Keep up the jokes. We will both miss you.
