Happy Birthday Poppa!

On October 20th, we celebrated my dad’s 90th birthday…I can’t believe he is that old; I can’t believe I am that old.  He is in such great shape for his age and we are so thankful to still have him around.   The theme for the party was red, white, and blue, in commemoration of his service to his country and to the great man he is.

The cake was so awesome…there was a B17 painted on it – that’s what Daddy flew in during the war.  He brought his scrapbook from when he was in WWII and I think the book got as much attention as Daddy did.  We love you Poppa!  Here’s wishing you many more wonderful years!

  1. Happy birthday to Poppa! Tell him that I just sold my Ryan PT-22 to a flying museum in Granite Falls, Minnesota - he may have been an aviation cadet and had the chance to fly one. I owned this one from 1986 and restored it to WWII colors and configuration. Miss it.

  2. Hi Dear: Just read your blog. Had no idea you were going to do that.
    You still know how to make the old man tear up.
    We love you very much. Daddy
