It's a quaint little place with clouds for a ceiling
Where everyone comes because it's appealing
All walks of life have entered these doors
Searching for the best food that heaven adores
The likes of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson are frequent guests
As are many other heroes who've completed their earthly quests
The owner and chef sometimes greets his Heavenly patrons
Who gives him their loyalty and full attention
He has a dream that will some day appear
To have his earthly partner beside him to whom he grew so near
Together they will cook and serve the best Heaven has to offer
Attracting even more distinquished clientel than ever before
For these patrons will be America's finest who has kept our country's independance
Under the grace of God and for the sake of the free
Dedicated to Jeff Barthol, USMC, 3/26 Marines, Kilo (KIA March 04, 1969) and Dennis "Ski" Kwiatkowski, USMC, 3/26 Marines, Kilo (Vietnam 1968-69). After returning from Vietnam they were going to open a diner or restaurant in Philadelphia together.
Keith "Doc" Miller 3/3/04
NOTE: Dennis "Ski" Kwiatkowski" passed away on March 4, 2015. The same day exactly 46 years ago that Jeff was KIA (Killed in Action) in Vietnam (March 4, 1969).
