Thirteen years ago today Dad passed away. I miss him and always will...until we meet again on the other side. He was always so good to me and I felt like he would do anything for me. I know realistically, he MAY not have really been able to do that, but I don't think there's much he wouldn't have been willing to do. I miss that twinkle in his eye and his cute sense of humor. He was a strong and sturdy man and I liked that, too. I'm sure he and Mom are enjoying each other right now. I miss them both.
Dad and Mom snuggling on Mother's Day 1979. He always got her flowers!!
Coveralls!! (Dad always did like those). I think he looks very "John Wayne-ish" in this picture in Hawaii at Hickam Field. (He was there between 1939 and early 1942).
