Normally, I would have a long, wordy post all prepared to go. Truth be told I do have a long, wordy post prepared…..too wordy! I really need to trim it down and determine a focus. Trust me, you’ll appreciate that! So – in honor of my grandfather’s 113th birthday, I am posting this series of portraits. Just looking at his face throughout the years will give you some insight into his life until I can get the article posted.
Happy Birthday, Pop-Pop Paul!!!
