The leader of the lost boys

The leader of the town
The justice seeker
Public speaker
Fundraiser
Host
Trail blazer
Father
Husband
Man
Leaving behind a legacy
To carry forth the town
To carry forth the family.
One could only imagine
What he could have accomplished,
Still striving to take in
All he had;
The lives touched by his jovial nature
His passion forwarding agendas
For the greater good.
A piece of shared history
A page torn to soon
A void
For everyone he served
For everyone he loved
Everyone who pays reverence to the man
He was.
May the things he built continue to flourish
May his example embolden others
To fix societies vexations
With such grace and charm.
