A Dear Friend Passed Away Recently. He Will Be So Greatly Missed.
My Friend, Roy Morgan
You answered your phone as “Angel Leroy”
now you truly are an angel
the mystery you investigated so diligently
is finally revealed and solved for you
may you find it to be more extraordinary
than you could have imagined
You could always be counted on for laughs
and rowdy stories of misspent youth
you often referred to yourself as “dumb”
but you were never that, never
you had a searching heart, a bright mind
you were a mystic, a thinker and a fine writer
You lived a good and important life, Roy
two days after you left, friends gathered for lunch
as we often did with you among us
the conversation was about you
your stories, your levity, your value to us
a good and important life proven by your influence
You were a wonderful, unique friend to me
you were one of a kind, Roy Morgan
with a heart of gold toward others
and a beautiful, open spirit toward God
rest in peace is not for you, no not you
you'll be exploring, investigating, enjoying it all
You will be so greatly missed, Angel Leroy
each time we gather, each time we think of you
every remembrance, every humorous story
our hearts will ache to see you again
time will go by swiftly, reunion will come soon
you'll be waiting for us, beyond the mystery
A touching, loving, and meaningful tribute to a good friend. True friendship is a treasure not so easily dug up. And I can relate to such a loss having lost a sibling unexpectedly on Christmas Day. Well done, Belle. Love, peace and blessings,
Angel Leroy was quite fellow. And I believe you have described him very well from very close personal observation and your friendship with him. A hearty sendoff. I hope that Roy's family is getting a copy of this poem embellished with artwork you are so good at. And perhaps, like most funeral places where I come from, have a place online for condolences where you could post it. But you probably have already done so…
A beautiful tribute Susan, to your friend Angel Leroy..
Sending love and hoping to ease your sadness a little,
For love heals all..
He will be waiting…beyond the mystery…
Our culture has taught us to believe in many ideas which aren't actually real. Exposing these illusions allows us to recover the power to live our lives according to our deepest desires.
