grumpette Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 pers your Dad looks very wise and peaceful in that photo. He looks like the type of gentleman that you could sit with over a cuppa and hear endless tales of his life adventures. It is a beautiful photo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
