Remembering Dad

In Loving Memory of

George G. Swetlishoff

Mar 8, 1945 – Apr 3, 2013

Dear Dad in Heaven

I sit here and ponder

how very much

I’d like to talk with you today

there are so many things

that we didn’t get to say.

I know how much

you care for me

and how much

I care for you,

and each time that

I think of you

I know you miss me too.

An angel came and took you

by the hand, and said

your place was ready

in Heaven, far above…

And you had to leave behind,

all those you dearly loved

you had so much to live for,

you had so much to do…

it still seems impossible

that God was taking you.

And though your life

on earth is past,

in Heaven it starts anew

you’ll live for all eternity

just as God promised you.

And though you’ve walked

through Heaven’s gate

we are never far apart

for every time I think of you

you’re right here

deep within my heart.

Loving and missing you

- always and forever
