Known you since you were a baby
You even call me Uncle Frank
You are one of my family
You may take that to the bank

You are grown up; successful.
You  are a very busy bee
Yet you put a pause in all of that
To cross the country just for me

I lost your Auntie Barbara
One eighteen of twenty-two
You came to help me with my loss
Love and caring's what you do

You have my love and gratitude
For the selfless thing you've done
The time we've spent together
Has been enlightening and fun

You've brought me peace and comfort
Though I've lost my darling wife
You came, not asking anything
To help bring substance to my life

You shared your life and friends with me
A few more days and you'll return
To the honey hive that is your life 
Slow down some, so you don't burn.

If you ever need someone
Please don't hesitate to call
I'll try to follow your example
And help to raise you from the fall

Much love and gratitude, 
Uncle Frank
