I am remembering my father on this day, my 64th birthday. He was 28 years old when I was born, and he left us 55 years later. In the last year of his life I came to know him better than I had in all the past years and I am grateful for that year of grace.
A few photos of this intriguing, complex, stubborn, intelligent, funny, talented, creative and loving man:
And as I last remember Dad, taken a couple years before he passed away.
Missing you always.

Nice tribute, I'm missing my Dad today too.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Sue. Memories and photos, so important.
ReplyDeleteSweet memories, mine died a few months before my 8th birthday.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet post, G-Sue. Thank you, I miss him too.
ReplyDeleteWe never get over losing our dads. I had a construction project before me awhile back and Dad came in a dream and gave me a building tip. He was always in my memory.
