Golf Ideas For Women

I need a song that is about something like rising above your circumstances to become successful. Any ideas?
My father is on his deathbed and we are discussing what a good song would be to play at his funeral. He’s not religious, he’s not exactly “warm and fuzzy,” but he’s a good guy. He came from an extremely poor and uneducated family and he decided he didn’t want to live life like that. He became an engineer and worked hard to make sure he and his family were comfortable and well provided for. He has passed his work ethic on to his children and his grand kids are going to be lost without their paw-paw to coach their soccer teams and take them to the movies. He loves golfing, jogging, most sports, maths and sciences,fixing and building things, traveling, and beautiful women.
Anybody have any suggestions?
