I am so sorry. Even though it may have been a blessing it is never easy saying goodbye to someone for the last time. I am glad that you have many happy memories of him and I love his Navy picture. I have a similar one of my dad that I cherish.

I'm sorry for your loss. I love that Navy photo. He looks like he could have been in one of the old time movies.

Thinking of your family. We have very few of the "greatest generation" left.

I'm so sorry for your loss. We lost my WWII vet FIL one year ago today, and knowing that the end was nigh didn't mean it wasn't tough. I smiled upon seeing his pictures; he was indeed quite a dashing fellow.

I can relate. I lost my WWII vet dad last June. He was young by your dad's standards though--only 92. My church gave me a flowering weeping cherry in memory of him and it started blooming a week ago. I loved him so very, very much and miss him with a real ache, but you and I can both be thankful we had our dads so long--and they were so wonderful. Hugs to you!

What a long life and an amazingly long marriage. My condolences on your loss. Thank you for sharing the pictures. I always feel like that helps us "know" the person a little better.

Oh, I'm so sorry. He looked so dashing in his uniform, and so adorable in the later photo (not that I would have told him that!).
I have such a soft spot for those WWII vets. They're why I spent 15 years in cardiac nursing. Tough old guys usually ready with a joke or a smile. We only have a few left at the office. Love them.
