Dad

Eighty-five years ago todaya baby boy was born. His parents named him Alfred, but most folks just called him Al. He would grow up to be my dad and my biggest hero. If there is a communication line from here to heaven, I hope he knows how much he has impacted my heart and life. I honestly don't know where I'd be without him.

Happy Birthday, Dad!

  2. Yes...I thought of him throughout the day yesterday. And today, my father-in law would have been 93. I also can't help but think of Mrs. I who is 72 today.

    1. No, I don't. Could it have been Uncle Al? He had a boat and would go to the Thousand Islands.
