Our Uncle was tall and strong Our Uncle was caring, loving
Wise with beautiful eyes. His voice powerful when Our Uncle
spoke oh you listened. His spirit was positive. Our Uncle would make everything right no matter how wrong it was. Oh Lord, Our Uncle we will miss his strong hugs, his shoulder squeezes,
his comical sayings. Lord we have enjoyed Our Uncle, hut now in your Name, Saviour we know you know
best for Our Uncle, George.
