Sunday is for Family

Daddy, acting silly
Savannah, GA
~July, 1979

This picture was taken six months before Daddy died of a massive heart attack, at age 52. This past Thursday, January 14, marked the 30th anniversary of his death. I will always remember Daddy as young, happy and full of life and laughter.





Happy Trails,

    This is a wonderful picture. It really captures what I can only imagine must have been a bigger than life personality. Thanks so much for sharing.

    That's a great way to remember your Dad - and we love the silly photo. Mom lost her Dad very suddenly to a massive heart attack too, and he was only 55. The good ones go way too young.

    What a fun picture! He seems like he was a very cool dad! Much to young, though, to have left this Earth. So sorry. Thanks for sharing!
