White lines on the pavement Scenery flying by 18 wheels rolling The trucker sits up high. So many miles So many roads Always thinking one day Will be his last load. In the places that he's been With the people that he's met He leaves a little part of him So they won't forget. The door that he opens To his happy home Being with his family Before he hits the road. Then one day he leaves To take another trip But this one is much longer The journey doesn't quit Until he reaches the gates of heaven And they welcome him inside. So for our husband, father, grandfather And best friend This is our last wave goodbye Until we can join you In our home up in the sky. We love you, Nelson, Dad and Grandpa We'll miss you, and never forget you. - Love your family and friends SOBERING FUNERAL CHAPEL CREMATORIUM, Beausejour 268-3510 or MB toll free 1-877-776-2220
