He worked hard and played hard all his life, loved doing things with his family and friends and thoroughly enjoyed having lots of people around.

I’d like the memory of me to be a happy one,
I’d like to leave an afterglow of smiles,
When Day is done, I’d like to leave an echo
Whispering softly down the ways, of happy times,
and laughing times and bright and sunny days.
I’d like the tears of those who grieve to dry before the sun.
Of happy memories that I leave when my life on earth is done.
