Six Miles.....

> Six miles I walked in memory of you. A friend that I miss, a
> friend dear and true.

> First mile came up and eager were we, to pass the News 12
> cameras and get on tv.
> I couldn't help but wonder when i saw that young face, did he
> know you Bill, and shouldn't you be in his place?
>
> I quickly marched on and dismissed the thought, as I reached
> mile two and wondered a lot. I wondered where you are? I
> wondered what it's like? I wondered if you are smiling, and was
> it you that brought all that sunlight? This day was so
> beautiful as the third mile came, and here comes Chrissy
> barreling up the left lane.
>
> We all began to talk and laugh oh so much, story after story it
> felt like you touched. Each and every one of our lives in your
> special and true "Bill Gonillo" way, there goes that fourth
> mile, it sure flew away.
>
> I appreciate your smile, the way that you laughed.
> Your passion for sports, and flying by the seat of your pants.
> The Cowboys or Yanks, a fan you were true;
> We will meet again my friend for this i knew.
>
>
> The fifth mile came quick and the the sixth one so near, I
> started to think I can't wait till we meet again next year. The
> friendships that formed in an hour or two, i really have no one
> else to thank but you Bill just you!
>
> I passed through the balloons and ended the walk, grabbed a
> sandwich and had one final talk.
> I hugged your parents and gave them a kiss, wished them farewell
> and thought only of this.
>
> It was a blessing to have known you, though such a short time.
> You touched so many people, and your LIGHT WILL TRULY FOREVER SHINE!
