    Looks just like my grandfather’s car when I was growing up. Good memories. I’m sure he was proud of you, and I know you’ll always miss him. Take care.

    We honor our parents by how we behave after they are gone. What a nice tribute to your dad. Thank you for sharing it.

    1931 – 2017 with my dad, the emptiness of heart and the fullness of love being felt at the same time is almost beyond words. David Gates’ song Everything I Own is about his father passing, it comes close to summing it up. Much Love to you.

    ‘54 is close to the first year I can personally remember. It wasn’t 100% rosy. Polio and endemic racism was a drag, but if you were lucky, it was a golden age, especially for kids. I wonder if it really will be the last time kids could have a ball being kids. It’s a mercy that today, kids don’t know what it was like then.

    And it was a time when a twenty year old guy like this, with his ’54 Chevy, was filled with hopes and dreams that he would largely make come true and bless his children with.

    Great photo, Dan. Handsome man !

    I know how much your Dad meant to you.

    Today is not only Father’s Day, but also ( had he lived ) my father’s 106th birthday. He’s been gone 25 years ,and there’s still not a day goes by, that I don’t think of him.

    Father’s Day is a day to honor our dads whether they are with us or not.

    Happy Father’s Day

    The classic style of white tee and jeans. I have a photo of my dad by the new car too. Good memories of great Dads.

    May you be comforted, and may you be a credit to his memory. That’s all anyone can ask.

    A wonderful photo, a wonderful image. Over time the pain will fade, but the memories of good will last forever.

    Great picture! So sorry for your loss. My dad died 2 years ago at age 92. He was a WWII pilot trainer, the one who rode with new pilots in a P-51. He always wondered how many of his students made it through the war.

    Dad hung around all Father’s Day and left us in the early hours of the 18th.
