Case Manager United States Veterans Initiative *
May 24, 1954 – May 24, 2010
Smiling through your pain
God dam it, I miss you George
My loss and your gain
You tried to let us all know
Your death still came as a blow

A serious issue. Sad.
Well written and fine choice of subject.
Too young to go. My sympathies on the loss of your friend. This makes for a lovely homage.

Case Manager, Sponsor and friend for about a year before he passed. Good ole Alabama ball buster with a perpetual grin.
