Subject: RE: 2016 Obit: Steve Robinson of Denby Dale(W Yrkshre)
I am sad to Hear of Steve's passing he has been a friend for many years
My condolences to Maggie and Family I know they will be hurting
I would like to add these words of inspirational poetry as a rememberance
Not how did he die
But how did he live
Not what did he gain
But what did he give
These are the things that measure the worth
Of a man as a man regardless of birth
Not what his station
But had he a heart
And how did he play his god given part
Was he ever ready with a word of good cheer
To bring on a smile or banish a tear
Not what his church not what his creed
But did he befriend those truly in need
Not what the sketch in the newspaper say
But how many were saddened when he passed away
These are the things that measure the worth
Of a man as a man regardless of birth
