Scott is a damned good friend,

He and his wife ARE absolutely family,

We will be this way to both our ends,

Our relationship above all else transcends…

Chuck, he and I have known each other since eight,

Played together as kids, kept in touch, he is great,

His wife & kids & sisters are mine as well,

None of that family will EVER go to hell…

Al, though recently he lost his Leah,

I know he will tough it out,

We have become over time as brothers, quite well,

He is another in my life that I think swell…

Ed/P-wee, a pain in the neck, but nonetheless,

A person of extreme faith & sense of being,

To hear from him each day on the Den,

Does strengthen my reserve and well being…

That old Marine Edvard/Georg, while to my life new,

Has become a friend never the less,

He keeps me in stitches & has good idea’s,

He is one of my personal chosen few, Semper Fi, buddy…

So many more help to keep me sane,

That ain’t easy with my lack of brain,

All do help me in a special way, not to complain,

What would ANY of us do in this life without friends,

That word means to me quite alot, as does family,

All of you out there have taught me & helped me to gain,

A new outlook on life though sometimes I forget,

I just wanted to herein to you guys, explain…
