Happy Father's Day by lynnz

Happy Father's Day

I used this picture from 1951 to make my dad's Father's Day card. I'm the oldest child. My dad is 92 and living at the Veteran's Home now. He liked the card. He let me put in his display window outside his room. He was a pilot and Commander in the Navy and will not let me put a picture of him in his officer's uniform in the window.
This is perfect - a fav for me.

I just came back to look for any photos of your granddaughter that just graduated and realized that somehow I wasn't following you. I don't know what happened, but I am again!

@lynnz looks like the car is a 49 Ford. My parents had one.
June 19th, 2017  
@dmdfday I know it's a Ford, my grandfather owned the Ford dealership, but no idea on year. Good for you knowing and recognizing it!!!

@dmdfday This totally amazes and impresses me that you know about that old car and told me!!

Great capture

@gq I don't know why he wouldn't let me put the picture of him in his officer's uniform in the window. Guess I should ask him because I've always wondered.

He sounds so humble- many of the WWII vets were/are. My dad always down-played his service. This is such a great nostalgic shot. A nice tribute to your dad.
June 20th, 2017  
Wonderful capture! Wonderful memories!
June 20th, 2017  
Well if you and your sisters aren't about the cutest little triplets! What a marvelous pictures for that special card for your dad!
