My son-in-law found this picture of my Dad! And it was a blessing and a much needed reminder of what this dear man means to me! My Dad passed away when I was 14 years old. He worked long hours on the farm and I really didn't know him very well. Being as young as I was when he passed, I was more into my friends, starting to notice boys, and just doing "girlie" things. I will always regret that I didn't cherish every moment with him more. But who could have ever guessed that he would be gone at the young age of 56! And leave behind a wife, 8 children and hand full of grandchildren.
My Dad was a great man! I've learned SO much about him and his life over the years. From family, friends, and men that served in the War with him! He is my Hero, my Daddy, and the 1 man that will always be by my side! Because for 35 years now, THAT is exactly where I have imagined him to be!
