Mom (Connie) was honored to pin on Hyrum's Eagle Scout Badge!!! Pretty cool!
Hyrum pins on the Eagle Mother's Pin on mom's "mother's sash."
Dad, Vernon, gives some remarks about Hyrum and how amazing he is and then reads a poem that was adapted from a poem Grandpa Richardson wrote when Vernon became an Eagle Scout and from a Madrigal Tribute that Vernon wrote this past fall.
Hyrum – The Eagle Scout
To my son Hyrum it used to be
we’d play ping pong, basketball, and chess
Any kind of competition
to see just who was best
You used to let me win a few.
But lately I can’t get any passed by you.
Your field of play has changed from beating your old man
To shining in all you do.
The best saxophone in concert and jazz
Soloing in Carnegie Hall with some pizazz
Acting and grades, not much you can’t do.
You’ve made mom and me so proud with you.
But today we congratulate
As now arrives this special date –
It’s good to say or even shout
Hyrum Jay the Eagle Scout!
You’ve grown and learned lots of things –
Whatever now the future brings,
You’ll be prepared for come what may.
To meet life in a better way.
Shine on, my son, shine on.
We’re your most devoted fans hereon.
by Vernon Jay Richardson
