My Friend ‘Trigger’

We miss you more than you could know

we miss your grinning smile,

the way you used to make us laugh

and make everything worthwhile.


We miss your unwavering friendship

that no one else can do,

the way you made us chuckle so much

just by being you.


You are never far from our side

we think of you each day and night,

and just picturing your cheeky grin

makes everything seem just right.

You leave behind your lovely wife

and a truly wonderful family,

the most special gift you leave for us

is your adorable baby Emily.


Your friends often sit and wonder

why we could not say goodbye,

to say the things we needed to

before you left and went up high.


We know you are always with us

we are never far apart,

remember Trigger we all love you

forever in our heart.

‘Tucky’
