October 24 is the day that you came,

Keith Richard is your given name.

A wonderful little bundle of joy,

A beautiful, bouncing, baby boy.

You brought with you so much pleasure

Love and delight 'way beyond measure.

With pride and wonder we watched you grow

And develop into the man we now know.

You left our home to lead your own life,

And brought to us your future wife.

Now you two have a darling little girl

Who has become the center of your world.

To you and your family we visit each year,

This year, your Lindsey visited us here.

We truly enjoyed your sweet little girl

And loved having her here to brighten our world.

Birthday's come once each year

To those far away or ever so near

Yours has come again, today,

And we're here to wish you Happy Birthday.

We love you dearly, our wonderful son,

And we want to be there with everyone

Who will be there with you to say,

"We wish you a very Happy Birthday".
