Once a man named Ray

Once so gray

Now a sunray

Above us today

Moving everything out of the way

We celebrate him in life

Not mourn him in death

We gather here
Under his light

To say hello

And to say goodbye

My great grandpa just died last month and this poem is dedicated to him. I plan to share this on his celebration of life
