Lunch at the Hula Grill.

Dad with his parents in Royal Oak Michigan 1964

On their honeymoon some 50 years ago

My Dad was so proud of and very supportive of my Mom. He loved her unconditionally!

I LOVE this photo! They look so happy! I really enjoyed weddings so I could dance with my Dad. He taught me to follow quite well!

Snowball kept him company always!

With old pal Ray (Fred the jerk) My dad had a blast with his friends

One of my Dad's many adventures with Roleigh in Florida.

With Prema around age 2

Adventures with Nancy:)

My Dad's favorite food was by far steamed crabs he told me... I have many memories of sharing crabs with my Dad in Florida and Connecticut!

My Dad LOVED peanuts!

Christmas 1992

Papa asked Prema to join him. This is the night we arrived. He was SO happy!
 

Dad was so happy to have his family with him. He said "Thank you" many times!

I wish I would've captured one of the many smiles on my Dad's face while he was being read to. Rest assured, he was very happy the day before he passed!

This is one of my favorites because it was the night before my Dad died and this is him making a funny face for Ciela to take a picture. 

"Chico" Papa's best friend

Papa loved his Grandchildren! Every year we got him some sort of wearable picture of his Granddaughters. This hat is one of my favorites! I know he left behind a lot of silly t shirt of his girls :)

This was Christmas of 2011, just last year. My Dad was so happy to have us for our annual "before Christmas visit" It was also the first time he met my now Fiance which is very special to me.
