Ezra
Howard-
Ezra
was a gentle loving soul with an unassuming way
He
found relaxation as he twiddled hankies some say.
As
father he nurtured and guided his children by example
Remember
the horse and sleigh as snow they did trample.
He
had a faith in God and lived by the Golden Rules-
He
believed that ignoring rules would never be cool.
Patience
Ezra always maintained even in times of duress
His
motto, “Let’s work together and clean up the mess.”
Cliff
and Ezra were much like brothers in the countryside
They
loved to explore up hill, down dale and the river ride.
Happy
memories and camaraderie these adventures made.
Furs
and gold made these men brave and very unafraid.
Ezra
lived a very full memorable life in not many years
His
family fondly remembers him years later with tears.
If
he could but make one more wish I sense it would be
Love
God and forgive the wrong-You must grow up strong.
