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.....
