TO RONEY
ION His First Anniversary

NOlI Ills
ROney was tiny boy
When he came to our town;
He brought a lot of joy
For the neighbOrs all around.
He is the most popular guy
That you may ever meet;
When he smiles and winlxs his eye
He will win your heart complete.
Sometimes he makes funny face
Which fills ones soul with bliss;
And then into your arms he'll race
just to get a hug and kiss.
Today, tho he is only one
He is really quite man;
ROney's cute and full of fun
And as strong as Tarzan.
Roy

the bond Of friendship be-
