In Memory Of My Father On Fathers Day
Written by D.A.M
June 20, 2004

Fourteen years have gone by
since you went to Heaven that day

And I realize that even though
you aren't here in body
that your spirit
still surrounds me every day.

I have so many fond
memories of you
when I was growing up as a child with you

But the one thing
that still lingers in my mind
way back then was
when I was around
ten years of age  

All of us as a  family
would gather round
and we would all pitch in together
and we would make home made ice cream

It was a lot of work to make ice cream  
but boy when it was done
we were all happy as can be
to enjoy a nice cold dip of ice cream
that was all home made together as a  family

There are so many other fond memories too

How about the times when we used to
go fishing when
I was a young boy
around three or four
and you introduced me to
fishing off the pier

I sure do cherish those fond memories
with you and my first
experience going fishing with you

There were so many other memories
that I can remember as a chid too

Remember the days when you would have to be away
from home because of your job  
and you would have to be away for weeks at a time

And then you would finally come home.

I was a small child back then
but I sure was so anxious
and I was always looking out the window
to see when you would walk through the gate
and then you would walk
through the front door into the house

And that's when I would jump up
and you would catch me and give me a big old hug.
I was so excited to see you
and to know that you were back home
with Mom and all us

There were so many fond memories
that we shared in our lives together

And I just want you to know
even though you are in Heaven now

That I will always be thankful
for all the years of your unconditional love

And no matter what
you will always remain
alive in my heart
as long as I live

God bless you Dad
and Happy Fathers day

I hope that Jesus will
give you a big hug from me today
