Father — Anonymous
“He never said, “I love you,”
in words I can recall.
He felt it not the manly thing to do.
Yet, deep within my heart
I know that love was really there.
His eyes, his touch, the things he did
all told me that it’s true.
And now it’s time to say, ‘Goodbye,’
to Father and to friend.
Sweet memories remain of him,
ones that will not end.”

“The times when life is difficult,

And teaches us the news…
A dad gives us the kind of love
That lasts a lifetime through.”

Just how much I love and
miss him, every single day…”

Father — Ella Wheeler Wilcox
“He never made a fortune, or a noise
In the world where men are seeking after fake;
But he had a healthy brood of girls and boys
Who loved the very ground on which he trod.
They thought him just little short of God;
Oh you should have heard the way they said his name —
‘Father…’”
