Goodbye Dad, Please be at peace
Goodbye Dad. Please be at Peace
F J McCarthy on Jun 16, 2010
My father, John McCarthy Sr. passed away this morning,at 1230 am June 16 2010. this is my attempt to honor his memory.
This morning I got the news.
That you had passed in the night.
The first thing that i thought of,
Will mom be alright?
It really hasn’t hit me
,the fact that you are gone.
Through thick and thin you’ve been there.
Yet now that time is done.
I pray that you have found the peace,
That life could no longer bring.
An end to all your pain filled nights ,
and days of suffering.
I hope that God has held you close ,
and eased your troubled heart.
When you look down from that place on high,
Know this Dad, we will never be apart.
You are a part of me ,
and you flow in the veins of my sons.
The life that you lived may be over,
yet your legacy shall never be done.
