Soon I'll be a nondriver,

As I am giving my car

To my youngest son

As a wedding present.

 

Been driving since I was 18

And because my guardian

Angel was watching over me,

I have not been in any accidents

That I caused, in all that time.

 

I guess at my advanced years,

It is time I relinquish my driving,

And let others do it for me.

It has been a glorious ride, Thank God.

Just think! No car maintenance and all that stuff! No car insurance! Were I younger, I'd get off the grid!

Love ya!

Knowing when to give up driving is honesty at work.
But giving your auto away is a good deed.
Both speak volumes about George the person.
