Happy Birthday from Jason

Most live one life and are content with that 

A simple existence wearing a single hat 

A special few, seek much more 

A life less ordinary, which is not a bore

You were the latter, walking many routes 

Artist, fighter, healer, father, all were your suits 

Giving more than you have taken 

We celebrate his life and thank him

As a young man, music was your art 

Guitar in hand, songs from the heart 

Leading the chorus, forming the band 

Finger picking, mandolin jamming man

You fought many battles and some you won 

Fluoridation in our water, to name just one 

Where there was ignorance, you would shed light 

On cable access, you show what is right

You work harder than some can dream 

Seven days a week and moments in between 

You practice, teach and preach good health 

Your work should have given you great wealth 

You labor on because you have a mission 

A happier life for others is your vision

To your family, you give the most 

And for this we give the greatest toast 

Shoveling snow, after a North Eastern 

Mowing the lawn each summer season 

Building a tree house that beats any expectation 

Always fulfilling a child’s imagination

From camping trips to vacations in Maine 

Free adjustments, to keep us without pain 

We love the passion that you possess 

Our true feelings we can not express 

Sixty years may pass in an instant 

But we have loved you for every moment

Happy Birthday,   Jason
