Capt Daddy

Picture
I love this picture of Daddy.  I apologize for the condition of the photo, but on the other hand I like it just the way it is.  It is rough and salty, just like he was, yet the humor and love just shines through his eyes.

I would say for me, and I'm pretty sure my sisters and brothers from the first few "batches", this is one of the ways I remember him best.  We spent so much time on the boat with him, no babysitters back then, Daddy always loved being surrounded by kids.  His, or for that matter anyones kids, all kids were allowed on the boat for free -  pretty much anytime.  He would put them to work, and pay with bologna sandwiches and Coca Cola's.

Picture
If you look closely at the picture of our boat the Greyhound above you can just see my little head peering over the railing, just to the right of Daddy's picture.  The gentleman who was kind enough  to bring me this picture was one of the many Navy men stationed here that used  to come out fishing with us often.  I was so impressed that we would actually be remembered so fondly so many years later, and that someone would make the effort to actually bring me a picture, along with wonderful stories (!) from those days.....but then Daddy had that effect on people.

Thank you to the Gentleman that shared the picture with me, and as always, Thank you Daddy!

Smiles,
XO
Toni
