My DAD SAM PASSED AWAY TODAY
HE WAS THE GREATEST
FATHER IN EVERY WAY
HE TOOK HIS LAST BREATH YESTERDAY
82 YEARS AGO HE WAS
BORN TO HASAN AND LYNN
HE WAS RAISED ON A FARM
IN WV, THAT IS HOW HES LIFE BEGAN
AT AN EARLY AGE HE MET SUE
AND ASK HER, WOULD YOU BE MY WIFE
THEY MOVED TO OHIO
AND HE SOMETIMES SMOKED A PIPE
MY DAD SAM PASSED AWAY TODAY
AND HE COMES TO THE GARDEN ALONE
NOR HIS WIFE OR HIS CHILDREN
CAN GO WITH HIM WHEN HE
MEETS GOD AT THE THRONE
WE CANT STAND AT THE GATE
AND TELL GOD MY DAD
CARING AND FUNNY
SO ITS OK TO LET HIM IN
HE ALO WAS THE BEST HUSBAND
AND DAD AND EVERYONES FRIEND
MY DAD SAM PASSED AWAY TODAY
HE LIVED AT THE NURSING HOME
FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS
WHERE HE REALLY DIDNT WANT TO STAY
BUT HE WAS STILL ABLE TO TELL US
OLD STORIES OF HIS LIFE
THE THE VERY END
NOW HE COMES TO THE GARDEN ALONE
IT SEEMS LIKE GOD ONLY GAVE DAD TO US
FOR A SHORT TIME
AS IF FOR A LOAN
BUT DAD HAS LEFT MANY
FRUITFUL
SEEDS THAT HE SOWN
MY DAD SAM PASSED AWAY TODAY

thank you for sharing such a beautiful part of you. My mother is gone, when my husband was ill, my Dad..still here and I feel dread for that time.
A beautiful tribute, all capitals, fitting.
