A poem read out at the funeral for Dad but addressed to Mum as well, our wonderful parents. From Adrian and Michelle xxx
As We Look Back
As we look back over time,
We find ourselves wondering...
Did we remember to thank you enough
For all you have done for us?
For all the times you were by our sides
To help and support us,
To celebrate our successes,
To understand our problems
And accept our defeats?
Or for teaching us, by your example,
The value of hard work, good judgement,
Courage and integrity?
We wonder if we ever thanked you
For the sacrifices you made
To let us have the very best,
And for the simple things
Like laughter, smiles and times we shared.
If we have forgotten to show our
Gratitude enough for all the things you did,
We're thanking you now,
And we are hoping you knew all along
How much you meant to us
