We are heartbroken to announce the passing of our Family Patriarch
MIKE LISSOWAY
JANUARY 28,1925 - OCTOBER 22, 2016
Walking to town at least twice a day
Sweet quiet man with few words to say
Fixes TVs, watches and clocksLoves
to collect anything dtat goes
tick-tock
A friend, a laugh, a small piece of pie-
A quick smart joke and a twinkle in his eye
Vegetables, fruit, and a little of a sweet
Purposeful, tidy, orderly and neat
Fixing the tree before modter came home
Enjoying dte solace of being alone
Projectionist, splicing and setting dte reel
Always made Santa's visit
after duisbnas Eve meal
November lllh, always walks in the snow
To send love to his Brother where red
poppies grow
"Pop Goes the Weasel" in time on the fiddle
Sharing a story and a quick little riddle
Gentle, polite, movie-star looks
Prefers news to fiction and
newspapers to books
Outdoors, gardening with bird and bugs
Happy to see you, big smile, big hugs
"So long," sweet Gedo, you are now
Heaven's gain
We11 love you for always and
will see you again.
