Tom wall, 30 year friend deceased 03/01/2011


There is More To Him

There is more to him
Than a dispenser of medications
A book of Pharmacy Knowledge
An answer for worried customers

There is more to him
Than a beach music listener
Shag shoes dancer
Thirsty's group partner

There is more to him
Than a Carolina Fan
Analytical Observer
And sideline warrior expert

There is more to him
Than cornball jokes
Cynical comments
And intellectual opinions

There is more to him
Than a life long learner
Voracious reader
Crossword puzzle solver

There is more to him
Than a man of faith
Who served in anonymity
And desired no reward

There is more to him
Than a pappa
That exulted over each accomplishment
And relished in their adoration

There is more to him
Than a father
Of two children
Who never forgot their future

There is more to him
Than a husband
Lifelong partner
That survived all conflicts and rewards

There is more to him
Than a friend
Who was always consistent
No matter the distance

There is more to him
Than his spirit
His strength of will
That lives in all our memories

There is more to him
Than Ashes left
Of a life enjoyed
And well lived

There is more to him
As he departs
The physical realm of today
And awaits our tomorrows

There is no end to him
Only a beginning
Of his gifts of himself
To all of us who knew him
