In Loving Memory of Everett Charles Preston |
REMEMBERING DAD I walked into his room as he took his last breath death rattle rolled from his frail chest I looked at my brother and said he's gone And his memory still lives on... He was a veteran of world war two His creed and motto was "Can Do" He was a Sea Bee, one of the best And His memory still lives on... I remember the day standing by his grave Honored by his brothers for the service he gave Flag draped over His final home I never felt so all alone And His memory still lives on... He was a quiet man, as gentle as could be loved his wife Marion, my brother and me He gave his all, kept us strong twenty three years have come and gone And His memory still lives on... He's got Grand kids he'll never see but the Grand kids will know of his legacy Gone but not forgotten, Til' the world ceases to be until then he lives on in my brother and me.. And His memory still lives on.. "In our hearts He still lives on". Boondocker "Memorial day 2001"
