My dad would have turned 96 today but he passed away in 2004. James Robert Payne was a proud native of the state of Georgia, a graduate of the Naval Academy, a career military officer serving our country in three wars, a devoted husband and father and a very wild and sometimes crazy Papa to my children and their children. He taught me to love my wife and my children, to do my duty to and love my country. He left his family quite a legacy. Happy birthday Dad.
Dad - great blog! We miss Papa. What a great legacy he left - love the picture!
