Remembering Ken Dear Ken you're gone, but not forgotten With misty eyes we stand beholden To the legacy you left, for the love you shared And the people who gained by you just being there A garden of roses sway gently in the breeze Fluttering sails on a restless sea The click of a golf ball, the sweet joy of a goal A taste of fine wine and food for the soul Your sense of adventure and taking pleasure in life Always a smile, even in times of strife The sands of time slip away endlessly No more can we stop the tides of the sea Your passing we know brings us pain o' so real The space you have left, no one else can ever fill; But our pain will ease and in time joy we'll feel When we recall those special memories, of a man so very real A Father, a Grandfather, a husband, a friend A man who was selfless, loving and giving to the end As droplets of water form ripples on the lake Your kindness and love spread joy in your wake You were blessed with a gift that could make people smile With just a cheeky look, or a raised eyebrow, so let's take a while; To remember our beloved Ken - a true one of a kind A legend, a gentleman - who leaves behind A Wife, a daughter, a son and grandchildren Whose lives were enriched by your spirit and influence So big in heart, so generous in spirit So kind and thoughtful, wise and gifted Remember you we will, deep in our hearts With a smile of a memory, a treasure from the past; In us you live on - we will never forget While you rest in peace, some tears we will shed But privileged we are to have known someone so special God bless you Ken, we will love you, forever
