Jim,
You were us.
At the Sons, the Vikings, or as a dinosaur. You were us.
The Trolls’ Den, the Eagles, the Vikings walking down Front Street, and then the bonfires.
We knew you, and we loved you.
You were always there.
A sarcastic remark
A positive thought
Self criticism
An affirmation toward another
They were all you, Jim
You did them allYou stood tall.
You raised us all.
You’re gone, and it is our loss.
You fought, and we were there with you, for you.
You were strong, as we all knew you would be,
But God called.
We know you have risen,
but our hearts, our memories, are forever filled with you.
You, Jim, are forever in our memories and our hearts.
Look down from time to time, and remember us, as we shall always remember you.
-Jason
