My wife danced to this song with her father on our wedding day 23 years ago. He was the wind beneath her wings. He was her hero. He was the wind beneath the wings of nine children, over two dozen grandchildren, and a half dozen great grandchildren. He was a great man. There will forever be a hole in our hearts. We’ll miss you terribly. Farewell Pop.
Did you ever know that you’re my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.
It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
but I’ve got it all here in my heart.
I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it.
I would be nothing without you.
