You Da Man!
Ever since my life began,
I realized that "You da man!"
I saw your wisdom, your courage too,
And I learned I could rely on you.
Your tolerant nature was really great;
Nevertheless, you'd not hesitate
To let me know when I'd been bad;
It must have been hard, but that's being a dad.
You're strong and smart and filled with love--
A gift to me from up above,
So here's a greeting from your biggest fan:
Happy Birthday, Dad, 'cause "You da man!"
By Karl Fuchs
YOU MAY BE GONE BUT, YOU ARE NEVER FORGOTTEN IN OUR LIVES. HAPPY BDAY DAD!!!!!!
