Birthday Tribute in memory of our beloved father, Fred Dellen, on his 89th birthday.

A father is the one who takes such pride in all you do,

The one you know is on your side and wants to see you through,

The one who kindly reassures...

The one whose time is always yours.

A father is the one who cares for what you have to say,

The one whose gentle words always brightened up your day.

The one whose quiet strength endured . . .

The one whose love was always yours.

You gave so much of yourself so often without expecting anything in return.

You're the best father anyone could ever have,

And you were loved so more than words can say.
