A baby - already so mischievous and mirthful and
himself
A boy and brother

A young trouble maker and handsome guy (yes, that is a schoolyard, yes that is a cigarette!) The one with the car - he is seventeen!




A military man and midnight sky diver


A husband and newlywed


A young father, an older father



A hard working mechanic who often smelled of oil, sweat and cigs.

A trucker through and through. A dog lover like no other.


My father of the bride

A grandfather to Brenda, Christopher, Sabrina, Evan and Finley

Generous to a fault (we were all laughing remembering the time he gave away our Thanksgiving turkey:) Oh, and an absolutely hopeless romantic... Here he is with his "girlfriend" as he liked to call Mom.

Alas, he was a pretty crappy patient. He never admitted to the amount of pain he was in and always tried to do
way to much. One of the last photos taken of him - the day we sprung him from the hospital. He was so happy to be home.

Whew, well there it is. The pictures I can do. The words to say about the loss of my father I cannot do here now. Oh, my gosh - though he drove us crazy much of the time we all loved him so, did we not? His friend Jacob described him as an angel - I really like that.
