I’ll be saying a prayer and remembering all the sacrifices he made and hard work he did for us. Passed away 11/3/2011, God Bless!

As I BBQ ( or grill for those who call slow cooked meat BBQ, which is the correct definition), in my house. And
seeing how it is my day, the wife will make a big pot of spaghetti sauce.
Now that’s Italian

My father, AAF pilot, awarded the DFC, died on 21 Dec 1988, the day Pan Am 103 went down. I visited his grave last weekend to pay my respects.

I'll think about dad and grand-dad early in the morning before the sun rises. They are both dead of cancer.

I'll say my prayers before sunrise, sneak back to the house to put up the flag while the local base plays the National Anthem at 0800, and then avoid my child/grandchildren for as long as they don't find me. ;)

We play hard around here.

It's going to be the Same Ole' Same ole', going to work for 8 hours of double time to just maintain our lifestyle in our "no inflation" economy that has been eroding our buying power for years.

Church, followed by smoking ribs in the afternoon. I’ll tend the smoker and sit on my butt for a nice lazy Sunday with my family.

Lost Dad in 1999. He sacrificed everything so we kids wouldn’t have to struggle like he did growing up.

Miss him every minute of every day.

Will take “dad” (husband/father of kids) out. Another great guy who really looks after, pays attention to, plays with and LOVES his kids. (willing to play “girly” games with the girls, wrestle, play ball with boys — and is NEVER too tired, even if he is, LOL).

Reminds me of MY dad...

Buried my father in 1986 on my birthday. Will never forget that. And I still call him “Daddy”.
