Farewell old friend...






A limmerick* to our white chariot
1995-2010
may he rest in peace


There once was a geo prism
Boy, are we going to miss him
he was a good friend
true blue till the end
He had great enthusiasm


While sitting at work one day
A Suburban got away...
she slipped on the ice
and he paid the price
Our poor Geo wasn't okay


He crashed into four other cars
Each of them left a big scar
while Jer was inside
he went for the ride
That ultimately took him too far


At the end of the day he was frail
We tried to save him, to no avail
onto a tow truck he went
his life was well spent
Now we wait for our check in the mail



*not a professional limmericist.  rhyming words may not entirely make sense.
