May you always be remembered and loved by you friends and family [bodytext] => Words escape me I didn't know what to say, when I heard the tragic news on that fateful June day.

You will be remembered by all from friends to family and your best friend sully, especially those commercials shouting your voice for Oxyclean! and Mighty Puddy!

Though we taken you for granted watching you act like a buffoon, saying to ourselves now your death was too soon.

On or off the set making people laugh with your big heart, its safe to say everyone wasn't exspecting your depart.

But don't be sad because we know he's up in heaven still so cheery, his booming voice echoing on for all eternity.

Being Australian i am not too sure who Billy May is - but i am guessing a baseballer. Anyway, if he has fans willing to write verse for him, then he left behind him a great legacy.
Nice poetic attempt.

Nice tribute. Whymsicle and yet thoughtfull in the same breathe. His death was greatly undershadowed by other deaths of that week though: Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon and others. Even David Carradine died earlier in the month.
