Charles Dickens so eloquently stated in his poem titled
"We Simply Say Good-bye"
Good-bye my friend, We will miss you Dan.
We say it for an hour or for years,
We say it smiling, say it choked with tears;
We say it coldly, say it with a kiss;
And yet we have no other words than this,
" Good-bye"
We have no dearer word for our hearts friend,
For him who journeys to the world's far end,
And sears our soul with going; this we say,
As unto him who steps but o'er the way-
"Good-bye"
Alike to those we love, and those we hate,
We say no more at parting at life's gate,
To him who passes out beyond earths sight-
We cry, as to the wanderer for the night,
"Good-bye"
Dan was many things to many people over the time he was with us-
A son, a father, a man and most importantly a friend.
73's
Your Friends Paul WA7US (and Hal)
