(Not so) Wordless Wednesday - Clay Ford - Air Force, circa 1955

I'm posting old family photographs from my collection on Wednesdays, but they won't be wordless posts like others do - I simply am incapable of having a wordless post.

Here is one of my dad from my family collection:

I don't know much about this photo. Maybe some of you out there can help. My dad, Clay Ford, is on the left. This picture was taken about 1955-1957. Not sure where it was taken. Does anyone know who the two men are with him? 

(Not so) Wordless Wednesday - Visit With Dad, 2010

I'm posting old family photographs from my collection on Wednesdays, but they won't be wordless posts like others do. 

Here is one of my favorite images from my collection:

This photo is so very special to me. It is one of the last ones with my dad. This picture is of my sister, Lisa, my dad, and me. It was taken in June 2010 at a Chinese restaurant in Corpus Christi, Texas, just two months after discovering he had pancreatic cancer. He passed away that August. I am deeply grateful for the time I had to visit with him and say good-bye. We are not always so fortunate to have that time with our loved ones before they pass away.
