In Honor of my Dad




My dad would have been 99 years old today.
Instead he lived to be 73.

gentle. loyal. hardworking. kind.
and very, very funny.

I love and miss you, Dad.

  2. Such a lovely post about your Dad, Joan, and he sounds like he was a wonderful man. I miss my Dad too. We were buddies, and I always told him that I thought I was the son he never had!

  8. So sorry about your dad. You made me think about mine. He would have been 93 last month.
