The family wishes to express a special thank you to Affinity Hospice, especially Lorie Stoltz, and the wonderful nurses at the cancer center at St. Elizabeth Hospital for their loving care and support. Our Father kept a garden. A garden of the heart; He planted all the good things, That gave our lives their start. He turned us to the sunshine, And encouraged us to dream; Fostering and nurturing the seeds of self-esteem. And when the winds and rain came, He protected us enough; But not too much because he knew We would stand up strong and tough. His constant good example, Always taught us right from wrong; Markers for our pathway that will last a lifetime long. We are our Fathers garden, We are his legacy. Thank you, Dad We love you!
