| The
following poem, written by Charlie Smith, was read at a
second, private ceremony at the Navy Yard docks where a
wreath and candle, and several flowers, were sent out in
the lake in memory of Chad: "SHINING THROUGH" Tonight, we gather at the shore, to light a candle in the night.
You know Chad is always there. Do not stand at the lake and weep Chad's soul is here to guide and keep a watch over all that's dear, to help remove all doubt and fear. A star for Chad is named tonight, to give us all a guiding light. The love we share, we'll miss his sight, is why we light his way tonight! God Bless You, Chad The background picture is Wolfeboro Bay from the Navy Yard with the lights of downtown Wolfeboro, NH in the background |
