a favorite memory

March 10, 2023
One of my favorite memories is when Michael asked my Dad for my hand in marriage. My Dad looked at him & said it's ok with me, but she doesn't do marriage very well, you'd be her 3rd husband. Michael laughed & said she'd be my 3rd wife. Dad said hmm how bout that, maybe 3rd times the charm. Michael & I are on our 14th year so we think 3rd time is the charm.

Sophomore Tolo Dance at Top of the Ocean

March 13, 2023
Another great memory - my dad drove me & my girlfriends down to Top of the Ocean for our first big dance. We were all so excited to go. Once there, most of the girls sitting at tables, boys standing around talking, no one was dancing. I was bummed. I thought I saw my dad behind a pillar & I did! He came over and asked all the girls at my table to dance with me & him. We all went out to dance, other girls joined in & dad started bringing in the boys to dance with us. He was the "ice breaker"! He stayed for about an hour dancing with the girls no boys would ask. I was so proud he was my dad & loved him so much at that moment in time. 

My Dad

March 11, 2023
He was a great dad. I have found memories of my childhood and my adult life with him. Janice and I lost our mom to early but dad was always around and stayed with us as long as he could. I have lots of memories of dinners, card games, camping, trips & so much more. I was very lucky to have him for my dad. My boys were lucky to have him as a grandpa and my grandchildren were lucky to have him as a great grandpa. He was loved. He'll be missed.
