yesterday would have been my Dad's 89th birthday. Yesterday was also the day we buried him 20 years ago. He was a big man - literally, at 6'7", 28 year Army veteran, game warden and craftsman and great cook! I still miss him even after all these years. Happy Birthday Dad-

I haven't seen a "Ridgway cap" in years!
You and your mom and siblings have my thanks; most folks don't know what the military family misses out on as the children grow up.
And, of course, my prayers and my admiration for your dad.
I miss mine also!

Mine will have been gone 30 years in Sept. He died way to young.
Being human is not for sissies.
Lost Dad on Jan 23 this year. I miss him, will never forget him, and know that he is with God.
