Father's Day... Forever Membered

Today...I see Father's Day
In a totally new way
Feeling those long passed wishing to be remembered
And sealed to our family, as fathers forever membered

Researching with energy, time, and care
I found the known names already there
Some had even at one point became endowed
But most of their sealings had not been allowed

So, as one privileged to gather up the links
I started searching... it became hard to blink
So many names...swirling by all too fast
The heads of households, generations past
Till I found my father's father's fathers at last

Inspired when I saw in the church news:
New FamilySearch Library in Riverton Opens to the Public!
