I do not have the words yet. This will have to do for now. Dustin, I love you, so very much.
We’re gonna miss your song and dance
The way you made us laugh
And we’re so glad we had the pleasure for a while
But on the other side you’ll find a better audience
Just be yourself and you can’t help but make the angels smile
Baby all the world’s a stage
Playwright pens your final page
And then he brings your curtain down
So blow us your kisses and drench our eyes
We’ll rise to our feet to wave goodbye for now
So baby take a bow
The world is lovelier because you had your moment here
And we could see a friend of heaven in your face
And in your song we heard the longing for a distant shore
Now your time has come to go
And so be on your way
Baby all the world’s a stage
Playwright pens your final page
And then he brings your curtain down
So blow us your kisses and drench our eyes
We’ll rise to our feet to wave goodbye for now
So baby take a bow
Your show is over now
It’s time to lay your burdens down
So baby take your bow

For each person who has not posted here, there are dozens elsewhere thinking of you both.
God, grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
The courage to change the things that I can;
And the wisdom to know the difference.
