In remembrance

Michael Groover 1969 (Knoxville Tennessee)



In Remembrance"

Beneath the moon's gentle light,
We gather here tonight,
Those we've lost, in memory we keep,
In the quiet of the night so deep.

They were heroes, strong and true,
Facing battles, they pushed through,
Fearless in the darkest hour,
Their courage bloomed like a steadfast flower.

With dedication in their hearts,
They played their vital parts,
In honor and in sacrifice,
They paid the ultimate price.

Though they've gone from earthly sight,
Their spirits shine with radiant light,
In our hearts, they'll never fade,
In their memory, our love displayed.

So, under the stars that brightly gleam,
We remember them, a timeless dream,
Our heroes, in eternity's embrace,
Their legacy, no one can erase.
