As 2021 comes to an end,
We hold on with a tear,
Because you won\'t be there in 2022,
As you were this year.
But we take you with us,
As the New Year starts,
Always in our minds,
Forever in our hearts.
As we learn to live,
Without you in sight,
We hold on to your love,
And are guided by your light.
Together we move forward,
As the family we are,
The future is bright,
With you as our star.
Your chair may be empty,
But nothing else is,
You made sure of that,
With the life you lived.
So Happy New Year,
Let\'s laugh and cheer,
For really there will never be a year,
Without you here.
