This poem was written by Harry's friend Melissa.

To Mr. Harry Ellis

I want to take a moment to give thanks.

He did a lot of great deeds,And he gave to all of us in need.But most of all he was a very loving man.Whenever I was in need,                he was there to lend a hand,And whenever I needed a great big hug,He would wrap his arms around me andSay, "How's my Snuggle Bug."To him we were all his family.To us he was everything he could be.

I would like to say last words to a wonderful and caring man,who was like a brother to me.

I wish him a great journey to our unknown.He left us with the love he felt and the things he did.

Now we can smile and say "goodbye" with our love.And we can say those words and wipe our eyes.We think of all of the good times we had with him,whether it was fishing, hunting, eating lunch, or just sharing a joke.

He would want us to be strong, and find in our heart to say "goodbye."

P.S. I love you, Harry, and I wish you the best, My Brother.

Mel
