for William Double

You were always there to guide me through each step along the way;

Thank you, Dad, for being there, and Happy Father's Day!

You meant so very much to me, and I want you to know

That you are always in my heart, no matter where I go.

You were always giving, always there to help in any way;

The loving things you've done for me, I never could repay.

When I was young, you helped me grow, and taught me all I had to know

Of love and trust and faith and hope, and everything it takes to cope.

You may have thought I didn't hear,

Or maybe that you weren't quite clear; but all the things you taught me

Were taken very carefully, and now I want to thank you for

Your love, your care, and so much more!

God Bless you, Dad, and have yourself a Happy Father's Day!

I love and miss you!
