To my Father in Law,
God saw him getting tired and a cure was not to be, so he put his arms around him and whispered come with me.
With tearful eyes we watched him suffer and saw him slowly fade away.
Although we loved him dearly we could not make him stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands put to rest, God broke our hearts to prove to us, He Only Takes The Best.
I thank you every day of my life for the beautiful girl you made, and proud to call her my wife. Thanks Lou, I'll miss you.
