I'm taking an idea that Brenda shared on her blog;
It's A Beautiful Life blog
by honoring my dad.
My dad (Papa Jack),
passed away on June 24, 2006.
We still miss him very much!
Below is a picture from a blog post
that I did a few years back.
My dad was a war veteran and he served in the
United States Air Force.

This is all I have left of my dad.
His Air Force hat
Shoe horn
Reading glasses
His handkerchief
Some of his ashes in a cement heart.
Collage left to right:
His middle brother, mother, father, oldest brother
My dad is the little blonde guy.
My dad in his flight suit.
He received The Purple Cross
My dad loved to sit in the sun.
This is the last picture of my dad
before he died, weeks later.
My dad LOVED his family.
Below, Kimmy and Todd gave Papa Jack
a haircut before he had surgery on his head.
He didn't know they gave him a Mohawk!
Which brings me to this handsome guy!
Levi, our 9 year old grandson,
has been asking a lot questions
about Papa Jack.
It was an honor to give him
my dad's military dress hat.
Levi wants to build a
Legacy Shelf
to display this hat
and other memorabilia on.
This has made me so pleased!
