Dad in “his element” making and fixing stuff in the back yard at 5134 Crusade Dr., San Antonio, TX. He loved the heat and being outside. He was a natural carpenter and very handy. But really, who smokes a pipe in 104°?! Although Dad was bald on top of his head, he had TONS of hair on the SIDES, which he grew down to his shoulders. He created a birds nest of hair with Just Wonderful hairspray and a layering/folding technique he developed. Use what you GOT! What a freaking genius (well, actually, he was literally a genius).

Dad’s own photos and documents he left to me and my sister in his Will (she didn’t have a place to store them and I did, so I kept them to this day).

Family photos Mom took and left to us when she predeceased Dad. I turned out to be the keeper of all family photos and documents.
