He always was so full of fun,
And when he smiled it rose, the sun,
He played snooker all day long,
And nothing that he did seemed wrong.
He had a tiny happy child,
So full of fun, so free, so wild -
It is just like his daddy was,
Before the power of his source
Deep in his heart did not increase;
It was weakened by disease,
An illness that was just too strong
To stand it out for years, so long.
He tried and managed, always smiled,
But it was only for a while,
‘till suddenly this day should come
For him to die so young.
He wasn’t even thirty years,
Left sadness here and lots of tears.
But in the heart of those he liked,
To those he did not ever hide,
And even those he didn’t know
There’s only one thing we can show:
He was a man that does deserve
A place in our heart on earth.
He never will return someday,
But there is one thing left to say:
Preserved in mem’ries he will be,
For ever and eternity.
*Dedicated to Paul Hunter*
