They are slowly leaving us
With every year there are less
Built of stronger stuff
Honed through Depression Years
Disciplined through War Years
They had a strong constitution
And a gentleness underlying
For they had seen the worst of it
Surviving to return to family and friends
Adjusting to life at Peace again
They are remembered by their children
But will soon be gone forever.
