In Honor Of Fathers Day....Pics Of Your Dad Thread!

Thought maybe it would be a fun idea for many of us to post some pics of our Dad's for Fathers Day! Many of our Dad's are no longer with us, and it might make some of us feel better to remember them in this small way! Also, those who are fortunate enough to be able to enjoy Fathers Day with your Dad.....please post some pics, maybe some fun ones of you and your Dad if possible!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

My Dad.......

This is a picture of me when I was a "LittleFish" and my Dad! This was a picture taken for his company newsletter about 1969 I think. He worked for H.P. Hood as a milkman and they featured my Dad one time with pics of his family. Here he is fitting my swim fins for a day at the beach!

Dad fished occasionally.....

My Dad was an underwater demolition specialist/frogman they called them in the Navy just as World War 2 came to an end! When he was not diving and such my Dad and his buddies would do a little fishing! Thought I would toss this one in!

Just remembering my Dad on Fathers Day!

Nice tribute to your Dad Larry. I don't have any pictures i could post, but i was very fortunate to have the father i had. He taught all the values and morals of truth and honesty by example. You always knew where he stood. His yes was a yes and his no was a no.You never left his house without him asking," is there anyting you need or i can do for you."
When ever i met anybody who knew my dad , they would say, "if you can be 1/2 the man your father is you will be alright." I've tried to live up to that.

BF, My Grandfather was a Milkman for Hood. He drove one of the last Horse-drawn milkwagons for them. That was before my time but I do remember when he drove the Truck.

Those old Trucks were cool

My father is on the left in this pic. I'm sitting to the right you can tell my reaction to his gesture. In the second picture I'm with my dad and his cousin. There is nothing like surfcasting with the oldman.
