Goodbye Dad.

Safe travels home to your maker Bobby.
Deepest sympathy to Bobby's family.
Sorry for your loss Sarah & Desiree & Marissa.
Like a shadow in the moonlight,
Like the wispers of the seas,
Like the echoes of a melody,
Just beyond our reach,
In the shadows of our sorrow,
Past the wispers of goodbye, May your life shine on through eternity
