Our Fun Loving Friend - Dewboy

William Landon Doss aka "Dewboy",

A son, a father indeed a best friend

Faithfully beside you surely till the end

He gave up the fight as two hearts were broken

In silence he left us as soft words were spoken

"I give up, I'm hurting, I love them so much

I need that warmth, that special touch" -

Loving two daughters, his eyes they gleamed

Being a family he longed for, he dreamed.

Surely he will be missed for he is loved so

While all left behind - we'll grieve I know.

God bless his dear loved ones

Peace and comfort be with you

**********************

This is Dewboy and Jamie, my youngest son aka Thumper on Christmas Day 1992, we lived on Sidney Ave, Burlington, NC. Oh look at the smiles and happiness here and oh so very young. Landon was 28 years old & Jamie was 16 years old.

How do you describe such a friendship as this? Landon and Jarrett, two best friends who were inseperable while living here in Burlington. After Dewboy married and moved to New Jersey they still communicated through phone calls and visits. No better friends than these two. They shared and dreamed the same dreams and yet fate had other plans for the two of them.

Ricky and Dewboy singing (well, if you could have heard Ricky's helper there!) at Blanche's - it was hilarious that night and it was not a dull moment...

"Dewboy"
September 21, 1964 – January 26, 2009

Celebrating in life of forty-four years
We’ve lost you now while wiping away tears
Angels came down and swept you away
You left here happy going thru `Heavens Gateway~
"To my daughter's, I'm sorry, I meant you no pain

Be good and love life for we will meet again.
I lived life to the fullest, loved you so, it’s true.
There's a smile on my face as I speak to you -
“God gave me two daughters and I cherish you so
I know that you love me and I hated to go
My daughters I leave to you, my memory
Just think of me often, there I will be
My days here on earth were so very sad
Tried loving my family and being your dad
But you see I am happy now, please understand
I’m Heavens Newest Angel, holding God’s hand.”

I Love You,
Daddy
