Dear Philip,

Oh! how we remember you on this special day

Wishing and hoping you were with us

Eleven years went by, feels like it is ages

Without you feels like there is avacuum.

You have been always by our side in ups and downs

As your birthday approaches

It makes us feel sad and down

Miss your presence in every way in our midst.

You are a peoples person wanting to celebrate every event

Inviting relatives and friends to participate in celebration

With your laughter you would make everyone happy

And with your witty ways you keep the party zappy.

You have changed my life in many ways

Which I can’t even explain

You have brought so much love and happiness in our lives

Which we always cherish.

Everyone remembers you so much and appreciate you

For your serious comments you used to pass

And instant jokes you used to crack

With so much brilliance and charm.

For your love and care and all that you have taught us

Every day with your living example

There is nowhere else in the world rather than next to you

For this and more we will forever miss you.

We miss you so much that words can’t express

Miss your presence in every way in our midst

You are always remembered and loved

For ever in our family and friends.

With love and fond remembrance always

Your loving wife Jessie and family
