We had a dear old daddy Who loved us all so well, And we loved him too More than tongue can ever tell He
was always true and faithful, God took him from us one Friday
evening. God has his soul in Heaven He suffered many days and nights, One day he thought that he had died, He left us all so heartbroken and
lonesome, But we will do the best we can, So until that beautiful day doth come By daughter - Lucille Minshew |
