There once was a man who loved to fly
He worked real hard and reached the sky
He cared for the family, after his father had passed
A mother and little brother, for whom he grew up fast
During the Korean War he was in the Air Force
working with planes, which he loved, of course
Oregon was his home, and Colorado too
A short time in Washington, just to say, “I do”
He raised two daughters with his wife,
Provided for them a happy life
three granddaughters, one grandson
He beat them at Wii, all in fun
He had many pets, and treated them well
A big heart for dogs, any could tell
Sadly, on the 22nd he passed away
So in his honor, have some pie today
He worked real hard and reached the sky
The man named Eldon, who loved to fly.
