What Makes a Dad

God took the strength of a mountian,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,

The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagles flight,

The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family in need,

Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so, He called it ... Dad.

We remember "mert" as a fun loving guy and loving his "Margie and kids". He was really good at football and golf and probably could have been a professional player. He was very smart and talented. On our last couple of visits he showed us his carvings, train set, and airplanes. He liked our PT Cruiser and enjoyed a ride around town. He gave us three of his carvings which we treasure. --- Mert's sister Sandra
