A Neighbor's Tribute

Clyde Raymond Jameson

18 October 1906

24 January 1993

 

The day my father passed away,

his "across-the-street" neighbor

wrote the following:

 

 

 

My Neighbor

 

 

Mr. Jameson has been my good neighbor

Just short of thirty three years,

He faced his problems as an adventurer

Without any doubts or fears.

 

He never did complain about a neighbor

Always had a helping hand,

Against morality corruption and ungodliness

He took a christian stand.

 

We did not attend the same Church

But he became my Christian friend,

On his jolly good humor and sincerity

Was something I could depend.

 

He always stood tall in our community

And one who has stood the test,

As a man who could talk without complaining

He was one of the very best.

 

Somtimes we are made to wonder

Why good things have to end,

We didn't only lose a neighbor

But we also lost a good friend.
