Happy Birthday, Dad! My Dad is 86 years young today. This photo is of Daddy and I on a visit to meet Santa. Look at my Dad’s snappy hat! What a handsome guy my Dad is….I look pretty bundled up, don’t I? Our visits to Santa at our local department store, Muirheads, were always magical and we got to ride on a little train, too. I love this photo.
Wish I could be there with you, Daddy – I love you.

Happy Birthday to your Dad! That is a very special picture and it’s special that your Dad went with you too, that was always something my Mom did. Dad was always working.

Happy birthday, Claudia’s Dad!!! He is handsome! He kind of reminds me of Jimmy Stewart in a way! My dad turned 86 this past July. 1923 was obviously a very good year!… Donna
