In memory of friend and mentor, Kansaspoet -
WE WILL REMEMBER

iN MEMORY OF KANSASPOET

A twinkling of stars shine brighter tonight
as a friend and mentor has taken flight
to Heaven's door which opened so wide
to bid this man come safely inside.
We will remember.

His poetry and stories of the old West
showed his passion for life at its best.
His campfires brought a lively crew
to do the best that they could do -
We will remember.

The Lord gives and takes away -
a path we all must follow someday.
The loss is felt by all who knew
the man from Kansas, tried and true.
We will remember.

He gave encouragement and advice,
and through it all he was always nice.
He gave a pat on the back when due,
urging us on to write something new.
We will remember.

Our loss is truly Heaven's gain,
without him it will not be the same,
Look to the sky for that special star
and know his spirit is not that far.
We will remember.

Rest In Peace.
We will remember.
