"He never looked for praises

He was never one to boast

He just went on quietly working

For the ones he loved the most.

His dreams were seldom spoken

His wants were very few

And most of the time his worries

Went unspoken too.

Here was there.... A firm foundation

Through all our storms of life

A sturdy hand to hold on to

In times of stress and strife.
 

A true friend we could turn to

When times were good or bad

One of our greatest blessings

The man that we called Dad."
