No mistaking my dad with his high forehead. The dog's name was Ginger.She wrote that the photos belonged to her aunt and that a cousin sent them to her recently. I'm sure I've never seen them before. Except for these now, the oldest pictures I have of my dad are from his wedding a little over two years before I was born. He died very young in 1982.
Hi Walt, Nice to see photos of the the young WCS3! And what a nice souvenir for you to have.
ReplyDeleteDid your aunt sent you birthday wishes too? I know it's a day early, but this way I'm sure to be the first to congratulate you: Happy Birthday and many happy returns of the day! Martine
P.S. Enjoy the 'steak au poivre':)
And Sue and I are second to wish you best wishes young fella.
ReplyDeleteYour Dad looks like an all American kid of the times.
Have a great birthday and Christmas.
Joyeux anniversaire Walt!
ReplyDeleteYour Dad died way too young. He was
very handsome.
I love old photos and what a nice surprise. If I don't write to you tomorrow, have the best birthday ever.
ReplyDeleteYour Friend, m.
Well, let me add my wishes, too. Happy Birthday. And I'm going to say it again tomorrow. And maybe the day after that.
ReplyDeleteYour dad was a very handsome young man. I don't want to give away my age, but I do remember wearing pants like that when I was a kid.
ReplyDeleteIt's your birthday? Happy 21st! :P
ReplyDeleteGreat photos WCS, and how cute is that dog! Have a great Xmas.
I'm glad your Aunt got these photos to you.
ReplyDeleteYour dad looks like he was a charming fellow. I wish you had had more time with him.
My dad was also a dog lover.
I loved seeing pictures of your dad :) What a nice thing on the eve of your birthday:))

what a delightful gift!
ReplyDeleteIt is always odd to see our parents as youngsters, no?
it jars us to think they were once upon a time 'not parents'.
Clearly, you didn't inherit that baseball gene.
