Stu

When I first saw Stu, he was playing piano and singing a funny song
I did not know the voice was a record and he was singing along

He had me believing in fairy tales till I was nearly grown
And I never forgot the way he laughed, the memory still plays on

How he made me laugh when he played the part of the crazy Professor Kool
He made me wish I were a child in his very special school

His warm and friendly sounding voice was a household friend to me
Giving the weather, community notes, or just “chatting” to me

He was right there at the touch of a dial, doing something different each day
As a clown, or riding a bid red caboose; oh the many roles he’d play!

He was oh, so grand just being himself every day on channel two
And this is just my way of saying “It was grand to know you, Stu!”.

His fingers touch the strings and instantly you fly away
To places he alone can take you when he starts to play

A feeling of well-being settles in among the throngs
For the artist and his instrument are married to the songs

As they embrace each other in their own sweet harmony
They cheer the happy ears that hear  and bless the eyes that see

Universally appealing music for us all
Rendered by the genius who is known as Patrick Ball
