you brought us up proper
you gave hugs and love freely
you sent slippers down the hallway
when we needed a life lesson clearly.
your life was full of ‘life’
you left us at eighty seven
today you would be ninety two
so, enjoy your chocolate cake in heaven.
your presence is still felt
your love still fully evident
you left us behind
but in us, your story lives as testament.

Charlie would love to start the conversation with you…
