RedMan tobacco poultice for bee stings.
Step into the pitch when you swing the bat.
Pounding pipes into summer soft earth for fireworks
And standing with us youngsters in the pouring rain
just to shoot them on the Fourth of July. Ice for softball's many battle wounds.
Sage advice for life's many mysteries.
Ways to fix almost any problem with a horse
And the proper way to train and care
for almost any creature large or small. The look in your eye when you see your grandson.
The smile when you realize how we've all grown.
Your laughter at whatever antics we've gotten up to lately
And the way you always waved when you were out in the yard. These are what we will all remember most.
The memories will stick with us throughout our lives.
No matter what happens, we'll always remember your life
And know you're smiling down on us from a better place,
keeping a watchful eye on us all. 17 March 2010
