Tis good to have friends to rely on,
Tis good to have friends who are true,
Tis good to have friends to lean back on,
When something is troubling you.
Tis good to have friends who are honest,
Tis good to have friends that are fine,
Tis good to have friends who will help you,
For things will go wrong sometimes.
Tis good to have friends who are noble,
Tis good to have friends who are kind,
For a friend who is noble and gracious,
Is a friend that’s real hard to find.
Tis good to have friends who are faithful,
Tis good to have modest one’s too,
For friends who are faithful and honest,
Are the ones that do most for you.
To have friends who are faithful and honest,
Noble, good-hearted and true,
Stand as you’d have them stand in the test,
And they’ll be good friends for you.

Don, thank you for creating this page. It is a beautiful memorial to your Dad and I appreciate how difficult it must have been for you to work on this. You made me cry and that is a good thing. You Dad will be missed by many but especially by family and close friend. Be strong.
