In Loving Memory
Tomorrow (Wed., Feb. 22, ) would have been the 85th birthday of the first man I fell in love with — my father — John Willie Taylor!
Daddy . . .
I thought of you with love today -
but that is nothing new
I thought about you yesterday -
and days before that too
I think of you in silence,
I often speak your name
Now all I have are memories -
and your picture in a frame
Your memory is my keepsake -
with which I’ll never part
God has you in his keeping -
while I’ll always have you in my heart.
(Poet Unknown)
