His love
Barbara Davis Strange 1952 (Greeville)
Young at heart yet growing old
With struggles and trials he still has to shoulder
Just a poor man but rich at heart
Giving each day a brand new start
Keeping his family close at hand
Like memories in an hour glass full of sand
Reaching into the heavens above
He thanks the Good Lord for a family to love
Barbara Davis Strange
