Time does not stand still
Like a vapor it is here
For a moment and then is gone
Enjoy the best of today
Not worrying about tomorrow
For tomorrow may not come
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
QUIET STILL

Listen to the sound of the quiet still
As the sun slowly fades over the hill
There in the midst you shall gently hear
My voice and presence so closely near

I know you miss me, I miss you too
The laughs, the tears, all the times with you
Each moment and memory stored within
Bringing me comfort till we meet again
 
Do not dwell in a valley of sorrow
Grasp to the hope that rises tomorrow
Embrace it to the hour of your last breath
As you cross that valley in the dusk of death

A couple of score and less a dime
Seems quite the tarry in the sands of time
Yet life is but a drop of morning dew
When that vapor rises I will meet you
 
 
 
 
 

Many things about me inside were passed down from my father. He was more than a parent but like a best friend. His life and teachings have greatly influenced my life. The Pictures to the left reveal his physical history Click here to read his biography

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Mom has also left a huge impact on my life with her unconditional love, hard work and sensitivity toward others.  I often hear from so many others how caring and giving she is.  She has definitely influenced my character.  She is the one that balanced and shaped my father. Without her he would not have become the man and legacy he has left.
