RIP Dad

I lost my Dad this morning.  He passed away peacefully at my sister's house in Lincolnshire at the amazing age of 102 years.  The picture is a scan of a photograph of Dad taken in September 1939 on the occasion of his engagement to marry Mum.  They were married for 69 years until Mum passed away at the age of 97 in 2010.

His death was not a surprise, as he had been very poorly for the past 5 weeks or so, but it has still left me feeling a bit numb.
