The Heart of Our Home

In Caruthersville he's the Fire Chief, brave and bold

In Missouri's heart, his stories are told

With a smile that lights the darkest night

Lynn's there to make everything right

We've been married now for thirty-six years

Through laughter, love, and sometimes tears

Our daughter Casey, a beauty so true

And his love for her just grew and grew

Oh Lynn, you're the heart of our home

With every mile, you never roam alone

Family and friends, you hold them dear

In your love, we all find cheer

He loves to hunt and fish the day away

In BBQ cook-offs, he steals the display

KC Chiefs, his team he cheers

His laughter erases all our fears

We rode Harleys under the moon's glow

In his El Camino, love began to grow

On that football night, our paths aligned

In blue and white, our hearts combined

Oh Lynn, you're the heart of our home

With every mile, you never roam alone

Family and friends, you hold them dear

In your love, we all find cheer

Two grandsons, Marlen and Noah, play the game

A granddaughter, Selah, soon to claim her name

Lynnard's pride shines bright as the sun

In their smiles, he finds his fun

In Van Buren, our cabin stands so tall

By the Current River, we answer its call

Memories we build by the water's edge

In those moments, love is our pledge

An inside joke, he hits curbs with flair

With a laugh, he takes it with care

Oh Easter Bunny, you're our delight

In your humor, the world feels right

Happy birthday, Lynn, our love and cheer

May this day bring joy and a bright new year

In the heart of your family, you'll always stay

Our beloved Lynn, come what may
