happy fathers day dad

ill go put flowers and a card
on your place of rest
but you are with
the very best
you was always here
but now your gone
and we are left so sad
it broke our hearts
when we lost you dad
we play the part
and say we are fine
but you know its not true
things are so diffrent now
since we lost you
ill take your cards
and place them with care
and hate the thought
of leeving you there
i miss you dad i realy do
you know that
i thought the worl of you
no farewell words was spoken
no time to say goodbye
maybe it was best
as we would have wanted to cry always in my heart dad becouse you are the best
loved and rememberd every day

we all miss you dad

5yrs ago to day
the angels came
and took you away
i look at your picture
and wonder why
was it our dad that had to die
he was a good dad
infact the best
all he needed
was to rest
he worked so hard
in all he did
he earned the right
and had the will to live
i sat and held your hand
as i watched
your life fade away
my heart just broke in two
5yrs ago today
i know your sisters,&nacy
and our bill too
are all up there
surrounding you
never again will
you be alone
since god above
called you home
loved and rememberd
every day
never more than a thought away
forget you dad
no we never will
becouse you are special dad
from diane and krill
god bless you mr manning
love to all that are there with you xxx
R I P DADxxxxx
