He gave so mach to others along the way of life Kindness, Joy and friendliness he rose above all strife. With his keen sense of humor and pure joy of living • ilia whole life was full of loving and . • He knew the folks in Seaforth from ' every walk of life Always had a kindly word and real , sincere advice For many when in trouble, turned to • him foe sympathy • And they bit him feeling better — I • know for he helped me. He was indeed our poet, who never let us down When we wanted something special for someone in our town • Celebrating anniversary, birthday or whatever it might be, ,He was ready with his talent to write his poetry 'ow he loved a day out fishing, up at the break of dawn And too he loved his curling days and bowling on the lawn. In younger days he loved to sing, his voice a thing of joy And he gave of this to others too, since he was just a boy. His Church was always dear to him, he served it faithfully. It held a high place in his life for everyone to see And now we'll miss his presence from the family pew, But we'll know he's there in Spirit — close to me and you. Now hes gone 'Beyond the Sunsetto his eternal rest, And all our lives are richer -- just to know him we've been blest May his weed ones find real comfort, knowing now his work is o'er And with our Heavenly Father he is safe forever more. —A Friend DUBLIN A. successful progressive euchre sponsored by the Officers of the OWL was held at homes through- out the parish last week.
