Last Bits of my Dad's Journal

Unsent Christmas Cards from Last Year from Dad and Mom

"Search and Destroy" Dad took me to see this and he HATED it. I don't remember a damn thing about it other than Christopher Walken being in it and I wanted to see it. I just remember our discussion after the movie with Dad saying that it was one of the worst movies he'd ever seen. I was just grateful that he took me to see it! We often went to the movies together, sharing popcorn and laughs.

A business card with Dad's writing on it; a cassette cover of a mixed tape he made and an article about him

A glimpse back
Thanks for sharing in the journey with me. I hope to have a slide show up of all of the pages sometime soon. I'll be posting my new journal soon!

I remember coming across my Dad's handwriting once, it took my breath away. It's nice to have these bits of love.

@Murphy's Mom-Dad sent the postcard from when he was in AZ for work. I'm assuming he meant himself when he said big ears.

Thanks everyone for the kind words.
