    Jarhead turns 90!

    Dad's 90th - dad & cake.jpg

    My old Pops is still lookin' good at 90!

    I thought I'd share this pic from Jarhead's big 90th birthday celebration last weekend as another update on him for his beloved DBR community. Of, course, he's sad we lost yesterday, but as always, he's super proud of Coach K & his players (as am I, on all counts). Go Duke!!!!! & GTHC!!

    Great photo!

    Please give the old geezer (term used with utmost affection) a spork so he can have his cake and eat it, too! Plus, please administer a hug from me.
    [redacted] them and the horses they rode in on.

    Will do, good sir!

    Unfortunately, I can't spork you. I apparently need to spread my sporks around.

    He does still have all his own hair, and he didn't turn even a little gray until about 80, so yeah, a lot like Coach K. Unfortunately, my mom's side of the family grays earlier, much to my sister and one brothers chagrin, and... much to my other brothers chagrin, and my own, thins out on top too.

    I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!
    This is what it is all about. Sharing special memories about special people in our lives. We got an Irish Setter puppy in Durham when my dad was in the PhD program in 1966-67 I believe. Named him Duke Reddevil. Last week I sent my mom a text because I could not remember his birthday (he lived 17 years!). She replied and yesterday I received a letter from her. Inside was a picture from Christmas 1972, with me, my sister, and Duke sitting on the living room floor together. I had Duke's stocking in my hand. I still have his stocking and hang it each Christmas. That picture has been on my parents refrigerator for nearly 50 years and now it is on mine.

    I am glad you have had so many memorable experiences with your parents and hope you have many more with your dad. Cherish those stories and tell yours too. Someone is cherishing those.

    Somehow I missed this.

    Good to see Jarhead looking good. Patriarch he is.

    Best wishes, Jar, to you and your entire family.
