Daddy dear, how we miss you

And our hearts are ever aching,
but we try to smile each day,
And our thoughts are with you

You, whom God, has called away.
Farewell Daddy, may your slumber
be as gentle as your love.
And when God shall call us home

May we meet in Heaven above.
His eldest son, F. H. Britton.
