T Today a young man turns sixty years;
H Half that time we’ve known him, it appears.
O Operating a small printing press,
M Ministering to rich, and those less,
A “Ain’t going preacher,” was said by some
S Sleepy souls, after the van had come.
L Loving man to Paula, his good wife.
S Stably married decades of life,
P Papa to their four nice kids, all grown,
R Reaching to grandkids, these four have “sown.”
O (Onions are part of any good meal.)
L Lord’s minister, who likes to help heal,
E Enjoyed seeing homes of Shea* and Ike.**
S Sincere “Bests” – to a guy we all like. – eab, 10/1/08
The Bryans and Sproles visited * George Beverly Shea’s homesite when he held a meeting in Kingston and we visited ** Dwight D. Eisenhower’s homesite when he held a meeting in Kansas. My wife and I first met the Sproles in 1976 in Tennessee.
