My Hero My Father My Friend
To me the name Pedro stands for
Patience
Easygoing
Devoted
Respectful
Original cause there will never be n e one like my DADDY!
He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather. He was very special to me because he was a father figure for my children. No matter what the situation my daddy was there. Morning, day, night, rain, shine, or snow. Never made a single complaint.
I HATE CANCER
I hate you I hate you
Oh why can’t you see?
How you took my heart and broke it
When you took him from me!
He was my hero, father, & friend u see
For only a short time
And then you came and took him
While he was in his prime
He was there to lend a hand
When you thought you had no one at all
But that was until the day
That YOU came to call!
He suffered, but not for long
And was in pain
You took a handsome man
And made him die in vain
He was my favorite
No, there is no doubt
And then you came into his life
And ripped my heart right out!
You took a great big man
And made him so small
So when the angels came to get him
It was not him at all!
He worked so hard to fight you
And stay with his kids and wife
But No, you would not leave him
Until you took his life!
You may think you won this time
But just you wait and see
One day, we will be together in heaven Crystal, Emily , Tamara, and me!
