He raised us up to more than we can be. We do not stand at your grave and weep. Your are not there, you do not sleep. We'll find you in the summer breezes that blow, in all the scented evening air. You'll be the joy of a task well done, we'll find you in the glow of a setting sun. You are our Pee Picken Papa with a song that will never end. You are the love of your family and friends. He will always be with us, when we need him we will whisper his name, and in our heart he will be there, because he was our bridge over troubled waters. He truly raised his children up to be more than we can be. His children rejoice that he is now with Jesus our Lord and Savior.
