That Someone Special (my wife) In My Life
Welcome to my little part on the world wide
web. I This page has become the inner me. The way I
would
After being born and raised in St. Louis, MO. I
started this web page on May 13, 1998 not knowing
much about computers, the internet or what I wanted
to do and say with this web page. So after 4 years I
have a direction in which I want this page to go.
like everyone that visits me here to understand my-
self better. In making this page over the years I have
become to know myself and the direction I wish my
life to take.
moved to Licking, MO. in 1984. Then in to Rolla
in 1995. It took the move from big city to small
town life to know when I moved to Rolla I found
the type and size town for me. I know now
everything that happens in our lives has
a reason. After driving a truck both local and
over-the-road for 25+ years, I was laid off my local
driving job I had for over 6 years on February 26, 2001,
with lack of sales given for the reason. Get real!
After spending the summer working on my house
doing some remodeling and spending time with
my 82 year old father I found the type job I enjoy
the most. Wished I had found this job 20 years

unconditional LOVE. Tumbleweed we

YOU GOT IT FROM
YOUR FATHER,
IT WAS ALL HE HAD TO GIVE,
SO IT'S YOURS TO USE AND CHERISH,
FOR AS LONG AS YOU MAY LIVE,
IF YOU LOSE THE WATCH HE GAVE YOU,
IT CAN ALWAYS BE REPLACED,
BUT A BLACK MARK ON YOUR NAME, SON,
CAN NEVER BE ERASED,
IT WAS CLEAN THE DAY YOU TOOK IT,
AND A WORTHY NAME TO BEAR,
WHEN HE GOT IT FROM HIS FATHER,
THERE WAS NO DISHONOR THERE,
SO MAKE SURE YOU GUARD IT WISELY,
AFTER ALL IS SAID AND DONE,
YOU'LL BE GLAD THE NAME IS SPOTLESS,
WHEN YOU GIVE IT TO YOUR SON.

GIVEN TO ME BY MY MOTHER
by duane
A fairy tale knight wants to be the very best
A hero looks for a "damsel in distress"
A knight in shining armor, wants to take you away.
A loving maiden with the power to stay.
This maiden must know the true meaning of care,
And be willing, the troubles of life to share.
She must be able to think and to build,
And over our hearts, I hold a shield.
Try to protect us from the storms of life,
And hold my hand through any inevitable strife.
This knight will help us get over our past,
And offer us a LOVE that will last.
A perfect maiden YOU do not have to be.
You only have to cherish and honor me.
Do fairy tales really come true?
Can this knight in shining armor rescue You?

I have no doubt this will go
unopened and unread
as I have sent cards here before
all it be
unopened and unread
I was told this account was
for me and me alone
but rarely with it checked
all things sent went
unopened and unread
I sent words and thoughts
from the heart
many happy
some sad
but they all went
unopened and unread
So little is the chance
this will be seen or read
that the sever it lays within
will delete it both
unopened and unread
This poem was written for &
sent to
Someone Very Special in my Life
in late Oct 2000
at the END
I Will Care About You Always

Our Memories of US Will Live

I Am Sad it Came to This
Thank You
Smile
A smile cost nothing,
but gives much.
It enriches those who give it.
It takes but a moment,
but the memory of it
sometimes lasts forever.
None is so rich or mighty
that he can get along without it
and none is so poor that he
cannot be made richer by it.
A smile creates happiness in the home,
promotes good will in business,
and is the cornerstone of friendship,
sunshine to the sad,
and is natures best antidote for trouble.
Yet it cannot be bought,
begged, borrowed or stolen,
for it is something that is of no
value to anyone until it is given away.
When people are too tired
to give you a smile,
give them one of yours.
No one needs a smile so much
as he who has none to give.

LIFE
Maybe God wants us to meet a
few wrong people before meeting
the right one so that when we finally
meet the right person, we will know
how to be grateful for that gift.
When the door of happiness closes,
another opens, but often times we look
so long at the closed door that we don't see the
one which has been opened for us.
The best kind of friend is the kind you
can sit on a porch and swing with,
never say a word, and then walk away
feeling like it was the best
conversation you've ever had.
It's true that we don't know what we've
got until we lose it, but it's also true that we
don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
Giving someone all your love is never an assurance
that they'll love you back!
Don't expect love in return; just wait
for it to grow in their heart but if it d
