In Loving Memory of My Brother

DAVID L. MEYER

Born September 23, 1941

July 4, 1998

Buried and layed to rest with a full military funeral.

TAPS

Day is done, gone the sun

from the lake, from the hill,

from the sky.

All is well, safely rest. God is nigh.

Thanks and praise for our days

'neath the sun, 'neath the stars,

'neath the sky.

As we go, this we know.

God is 'nigh.

One more time the Disease of Alcoholism had to raise its ugly old head and take another life.

I prayed that my brother would not die this way, now I can only pray that he did not die in vain.

If his passin' saves but one life it will not have been in vain.

God had to gently remind us one more time this disease kills.

Many die each day just like my brother did.

It has come a long way over the years but still has a long ways left to go.

The sad part of it is he left behind a family that loved him so much.

Two sons and 5 grandchildren that he will never see grow up.

The only comfort that we have today is that he is in a far better place.

No more pain and suffering. And just maybe today he has found that peae

and serenity of bein' sober that he tried so hard to attain. Always remember Bro you may

be gone but never forgotten And all that you have touched are better for it

Including me. We will always love you.

An angel here, an angel there,

I知 surrounded by angels everywhere.

When I知 in the middle of a terrible storm

They come with their candles to keep me warm.

*ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ

An angel to comfort, an angel to guide,

An angel to fill that dark hole inside.

An angel to cry on, an angel who cares,

I知 surrounded by angels, everywhere.

*ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ

The angels who reach out when times are rough

Who値l listen to my heartache and all kinds of stuff

Bright in the sunshine and in dark of night

The angels surround me with comforting light.

*ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ

I guess God is busy and can稚 come on down

To give me a smile and take care of my frown

So He sent a few angels to brighten my day

And help to carry my burdens away.

*ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ *ｸｷ､*ｺｸ

So thank you, dear angels, more than you値l know

For watering the happiness and making it grow!
