Default An Ideal Memory...

My dad passed on Oct. 5th at age 96, having lived a very blessed life. He never talked much about his service as a Marine in WW2, but would always say that everyday after he got home to Pittsburgh in 1945 was a gift from god. I was going through some pictures and found this one of him sporting an Ideal Grade LC Smith, along with a nice PA ringneck circa 1950. My Mom was out with him playing retriever that day, and took the picture. I took a long walk with my Parker PH one day last week on a sunny day, and smiled a lot thinking about him. Oh, he traded the LC due to a broken ejector, so his story went. A toast to you, Dad.
