In loving memory of our beloved dad, Thomas Baumgart, whose birthday is

August 12.

AUGUST 12, the day of his birth

Fifty-two years he was on this earth.

He labored and toiled with his hands,

And he traveled to distant lands.

He loved to sing the hymns of old,

And lots of his experiences he told.

He was so wise in many ways,

We didn't understand in our younger days.

We still miss him as the days go by

His absence sometimes makes us cry.

He is in a far better land,

Singing songs with the Angel Band.

Joining family and friends gone on before

Never to labor and toil no more.

Each passing year, for us is very hard,

We cannot send a gift or card,

But cherish all the years we had,

To celebrate your birthday, "DAD."
