He does not seem to get too much credit around here.
However, when your computer goes out, he’s the first one we call.
Dedicated and true, that you can be sure, for he’s in it for the long haul.
He’s the one who gets us rolling again and won’t let us stall.
So, who is he?
An only sibling from Louisiana, land of music, gumbo and spice,
Where life is mellow, sweet, and is really good.
Everything there revolves around family, love, and food.
We’re really lucky to have him as part of our USDA family
That we cannot exclude.
So, try to remember Dedric, in the trenches deep for us all,
He’s sure to be working on some computer project, or maybe on some crazy conference call.
Ensuring that our equipment is running just right for you and I;
So that we can shine in our jobs; but really the true support person is he,
That we can surely all agree!
