Cecil recited this many times as his favorite poem he learned from his favorite teacher Glenn Bennett
You're sick of the game,
Well now that's a shame
Your young, your brave and your bright
You've had a raw deal
I know don't squeal
Buck up, act your bravest and fight
It's the plugging away that will win you today
So don't be a picker young pard
Just draw on your grit
It's dead easy to quit
It's keeping your chin up that's hard

This poem was written in memory of Nicole Repsher
by Amanda Brotzman 9 - 15 - 1994
I watch down from my home here in heaven
Watching over my loved ones, friends and family
wishing that I cold brush their tears away
and take away the pain that they are feeling
For I feel no pain now except for theirs
I have found peace, love and happiness
Here in my new home
And I wish for my loved ones to remember me, lovingly
And remember how much I cared about them
I will continuously watch over you and protect you
And when we meet again, you too shall see
There is no need for tears
Because the world that you leave behind
Could never be as happy as this one that I have found !
