Father
A silent thought, a secret tear,
Keeps your memory ever dear.
Time eases the edge of grief,
Memory turns back every leaf – anonymous
I hope you sleep peacefully, and I will never forget you and the memories we shared; I hope your riding your Harley free up there and save me a Root Beer Cream Soda.
Love you
Crystal Brackett

Such a sweet poem! I know he would’ve loved to have us all together Saturday to say our goodbyes. I know that was one of the last things he was asking for in the hospital, was for us to finally meet. I hate that his passing is what finally brought us together but hopefully one day i’ll get the chance to meet you.
Your little sis,
Emma Brackett.
