  Thank you, Florance for accepting me as a new NavyDad friend.  I'm not sure if you saw my comments on FaceBook "NavyDads" ?  You asked if I could make a picture for you ... and I did.  It's posted on FaceBook now. Have a great and Blessed day :)

  Thanks for writing. I'm doing fine. A busy summer so far. Went to see my daughter and family. Had a great time with the grandkids. Went to visit the parents. Celebrated my dad's 79th bday and saw him march in a small parade with his fellow VFW. Saw my MIL who had broke her hip earlier this summer. Now waiting for Craig to go off on deployment. His first. Love your pics. God bless. Take care.
