    I was wondering what your father's name is. My Uncle was a Seabee during WWII at Guadalcanel. Did he go to any reunions over the years. My Mom may have met him.. I'm sending a copy of your articale and quilt pic to her.

    Great work! ..... And, now, I think your journey down this pathway has just begun .... Have fun!

    I assume (and we all know what might happen when one "assumes".... but) this is a portrait of your dad at a young age .....

    Are you planning on a follow up of the "now" man that he has become .... with lines of laughter and squints of wisdom? ...... I would love to see that ..... think about it ....

    Yes, I have actually been thinking about it, the gal that taught the class said that older people are easier to do. I really should get my "stuff" together and make another now.
