Thistle Down

By Ethel

A Servant

He was a friend to every man,
And Uncle of us, too.
In tasks...he faithfully lead us,
And seen that...we came through.

He faced the world so proudly,
His leadership was sent.
And we...this little group of people,
Was glad...he'd represent.

His handclasp had a meaning,
His words rang in accord.
His council...surely made of him,
A servant...of the Lord.

E.P. 1908 - 1989

Uncle Joe with niece, Coco. Ethel's great grandson - and great, great granddaughter.
