Life is a mixture
Of sunshine and rain,
Laughter and pleasure,
Teardrops and pain,
And in pain I was
17 years ago
As I stood by your side
Watching you go.
I was your universe, dad
And you were my world
But it's certainly true
There was never a cloud
The sun didn't shine through.
So I kept on going,
Yes I kept on smiling,
I never lost my faith
'cause I knew that
What came my way
God was always beside me.
Your only daughter Josann, James and grandchildren Bethany and Terence.
SCHRANZ - JOSIE. In loving memory of a dear father on the 40th anniversary of his death. Fondly remembered by his family.
