Earl S. Dye

West Point, 1946

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Stan Poturalski on June 1, 2010:

THE BEST Friend

God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be,
So He put His arms around you
And whispered, "Come with me"
With tearful eyes, we watched him suffer,
And we watched Earl fade away.
Although we loved him dearly,
We could not make him stay.
His life was not an easy journey
With many stops along the way
To give himself to those in need so they
Could make it through their day.
Earl played many roles throughout his life
Husband, Father, Grandfather, Son, and Friend,
There�s an empty place in all our lives
As we see such an important life end.
A golden heart stopped beating.
Hard working hands are at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
That he only takes the best!
