"Cherished Memories"
Picture this baby, an artist could paint
The face of an angel, the heart of a saint
Trying to please, from morning til night
Never complaining, so all would be right
Playing with friends, that no one could see
Made him the person, he wanted to be
One day a boy, the next day a man
So little time, and so much to plan
What do you leave, what do you pack
For the future is here, and there’s no turning back
Marching in time, to a strenuous beat
Becoming a soldier, your mission, complete
A defender of justice, the laws you uphold
With compassion and bravery, your courage so bold
But no medal of honor, or the badge you now wear
Can measure the pride, and the love our hearts share
Your story’s not over, new chapters to start
Cherished memories await you, to hold in your heart
A lifetime unfolding, one last thing to say
God, thank you for Craig, and this special day.
