Dear Friends,
Please don't despair,
Your hearts still hold all the good times we've shared,
I know it was sudden, and you might say it's not my time,
But I clearly heard the angels as they whispered my name,
They said there's no more pain as they took me away,
And they reassured me, I'll see you all again some day,
So to all of you I leave behind,
I want you to know,
I may not stand beside you & my body may be gone,
I'm always just a memory away, and my spirit still lives on,
There's no need to cry for me, because I'm with God today.
In memory of William K. Fish, "Fishman"
September 10, 1956 - May 7, 2008

Like a geisha on tiptoes
I glide along memories of your
Days were so long,
Nights so short...
Yet, I never gave up
Based on man's report....
Winters seemed so cold
Bringing lots of
