There are so many that pass away and go unnoticed
I'm grateful that you weren't one of them because you were the godfather of laughter
Since I was young, I loved seeing you on the big screen
You were at your best when you were on stage with the spotlight
Treasure the company of others, you always were the stubborn one on the screen
The best thing about you was that so many of your dedicated fans could relate
You portrayed the father that every girl would've hated but loved a lot because you adored your little girl, remember in Guess Who?
I read nothing negative about you, except this
Leaving a legacy filled with nothing but contentment
You seemed like a man of few words but lots of jokes to share
On August 9, I will do a movie marathon in your honour
I hope that's alright with you because the world lost a true entertainer when you passed
We need more people like you to be honest
Witty, Compassionate and Genuine
I really hope that you read the next line, I'm about to write
Obviously you're having fun where you are but I really wish that you join me in this marathon
Grab some friends and sit on that snowy like couch that you have above
Watch your movies and reminisce about those days and we'll do the same down here
But I'm afraid that this is it for now, Bernie
Until next time...
Bernard Jeffrey "Bernie" McCullough October 5, 1957 – August 9, 2008
