Last week Bill Thomas died. For well over twenty years and up to his final breath he didn’t know if his only child, Jamie (now possibly in his mid-fifties), was alive or dead. Every avenue of searching had been exhausted and his death ended many years of unbelievable grief…
Uncle Bill died last week
Spent so much time trying to seek
His son he’d not seen for many a year
It’s horrific when loved-ones disappear
He’d exhausted all the normal routes
Salvation Army and men in suits,
And so last week he passed away
Not knowing if Jamie was alive that day
Phone, text or e-mail an offspring or special person today (or better still, say face to face along with a hug) these two simple words “LOVE YOU” in memory of Bill Thomas.
