"The greatest man I've ever known
Had a soul that was pure and a heart of gold.
He was always there with a helping hand.
Loving, thoughtful, and caring was this man.
To me he was my role model, mentor,
Grandfather and friend.
He had a light that shined out until the end,
but even though he's gone his light still shines.
I can still feel him and see him when I close my eyes.
So throughout my journey on this long road
I'll never forget the greatest man I've ever known."
