I was 3 years old and visited my dad at work in West Los Angeles.
Happy Birthday dad...still loved and still missed.
Nice on black.

@suzanne234 Yes, Suzanne. He worked on patrol at the time of this photo, then worked for the court system. Now my son has been a Deputy Sheriff for 11years...

@lynnz Thank you Lyn. It is in need of some restoration but it is one of my favorites.

[PhylM-S]

Wonderful photo. I like that it is in a little need of restoration as it adds a little more nostalgia. A wonderful keepsake to have. I wonder what it was like in West LA back in the day.

[Elyse Klemchuk]

This is very sweet!

[Gayle]

Such a special photo! :-)

[Diana]

A magical moment.

@elatedpixie Thank you. Well, when my dad was on patrol in Pacific Palisades, Bel Air, Brentwood, Santa Monica in the 50’s and 60’s, it was a much different time. West Los Angeles was much different than Los Angeles. He was called to Marilyn Monroe’s home once as well as other celebrities. I wish my mother had written down some of the interesting stories...

@yogiw Thank you Sandy. I kept finding myself weepy yesterday. It never really goes away but is just under the surface.
