Happy Birthday, DAD!

"There is nothing stronger in the world than gentleness."

On this, your 89th birthday, nothing describes you better than the above statement.

As the only man in a family of five women you somehow held your own...and you did it through your kind and peaceful ways.

You have become a computer genius these last few years, Dad...I am amazed at how adept you have become as part of the "cyber space" world!

And, this birthday marks your gaining the title of "great-grandpa" as we all share the joy of Owen's arrival with you. After bringing up 4 daughters, I know that you are always glad when a boy enters the fold!!

So, on this day--May 17th---I wish you continued joy as you celebrate your 89 years of life...along with much happiness, health, and continued energy to keep up with all of us always!

I love you very much, Dad....

Happy, happy Birthday! : )
