Marty’s Poem

Lee was a soldier

He never went to war

He fought his battle at home.

He had many battle scars

Cancer was his enemy

But, he never complained

He believed in His Maker

Through all the pain

I know I’m speaking for everyone

When I say,

Thank you, Leonard

For taking Lee into your home

So our little soldier

Didn’t have to die alone.

God Bless Everyone…

Marty (Sister)
