He was about to embark on a project that was all he wanted to accomplish before dying. This little poem was written by my uncle (Dad's brother)for his program for the service on Monday. My uncle has captured my Dad's sense of humour so perfectly. I wanted to share it. Sabrina

And the garrett chugs on
with its smoke and its smell

And those who don’t like it,
Can go straight to ………...
