Tribute to Dad for his Birthday

Dad in the back yard with his favorite flowers




At this time of year we think back to all the birthdays we got to celebrate with Dad.
This picture reminds us of his love of flowers and working in his yard.
This Jan. 30th, he would have been 88 years old.
Happy Birthday Dad.
