CHARLTON HESTON
He chose his opportunities
To become strong, not weak
By pulling up his boot straps
He acquired the dreams we seek.
His personal goals of well being
Never stood in the way
Of doing his public duty
No matter what others would say.
His devotion proved contagious
It's the brilliance of his kind
What we found inside of him
Was great character of mind.
With faith and courage, he did live
For his life to be complete
With good morals and family life
He triumphed, even in defeat.
He was raised to participate
Within his community
With his fellow men and women
He enriched life and liberty.
