He was a good man....

Hard as nails

A man of steel

But ,under that outside shell

dwelled a heart as strong as well

 

He did not take any slack

He expected your best and that's a fact

But , he would always have your back

He helped the family become stronger

because of that

 

He would joke around the campfire's light

That notorious Mooga Mooga bird would take it's flight

We would all laugh , for he was a true delight

He was his softest on those campfire nights

 

My Uncle Denny , He was a good man

Never afraid to take a stand

Protecting us all each and everyday,

from people who would put us in harms way

 

My Uncle Denny, he sure could cook

One taste of his chili and you were hooked

His beef barley soup was truely devine

And his Barb-Q creations were one of a kind

 

He was a good man I say it again it's true

One of the best I ever knew

He will be missed more than I can say

We must celebrate life each and everyday

For I know in my heart he would want it that way.....
