So many memories of you in mind
Like movies they play then they rewind
My childhood is filled with trips your way
Which of course you knew I wanted to stay
When telling a joke I’d listen intently
Laughing along you’d explain it gently
When tears and laughter start to collide
I’ll pull out the memories locked up inside
Remembering fondly the time that we spent
Laughing and joking where ever we went
Now that you’re gone my heart feels the weight
The lose that I feel is far to great
When I think of you I’ll always be glad
For all the time together we had
I'll miss you Uncle Harry
Love,
Christa
