A neighbor of mine passed away last week
It was a shock to receive the news
He was the kind of neighbor you were happy to have as a friend
A happy man, quick with a smile and a cheerful hello
He liked people, liked to sit a spell and chat
Was always ready to lend a helping hand if needed
Planted flowers in his yard, put up lights for Christmas
Treasured his wife and his kids
Worked as hard as anyone I ever knew
Whether it was on the job or at his home
He put his back into anything and everything
Liked to get things done
Life is fragile, unpredictable, unfathomable
Rob Kelly was as full of life as a person could be
And he shared that enthusiasm, that energy
With everyone he met everyday
He will be missed
