I know that he touched me, I know he touched you
A best friend Marvin was to almost everyone he knew
He left an empty space in our hearts when he went too soon away
We will fill that spot with things he did for us, funny things
he would say
He wouldn't want us to feel this pain his leaving has brought to us
I know he'd say, "remember me but please don't make a fuss"
I only hope he knew well and takes with him into eternity,
how very much we loved him and how much he meant
To you and me
In loving memory of
Marvin Andrew Zieman

O, Great Lover of Life
O, great lover of life and true friend of friends
Your joyous spirit lives on while mortal life ends
Memories of you so treasured that I shall ever keep
Yet for your absence in my life I will forever weep
