My Best Friend (Franco)
It is no accident
that my friend was taken away
This time of passing was planned by God
right down to the very day
Even before Lamar was born
his day had already been planned
And this was something that couldn't be changed
not by any woman or man
But on the way to this moment
Lamar lived a joyous life
He had a chance to share this joy
with his children and his wife
And when we met we were inseparable
if you saw Lamar you'd see Tim
He gave me the honored joy
of riding this journey with him
But over the years we drifted apart
yet the friendship never went away
Our lives it seems took different paths
but we're together again this day
I truly am going to miss Franco
but I know that I'll see him again
On the other side of eternity
where we'll be forever friends
In Loving Memory of my best friend
(Franklin Lamar Threatt)
His passing was March 22, 2009
