You may remember my sister's father in-law from this post.
Well he passed away Saturday. Tough old Marine had a heart attack, stroke, pneumonia and a bladder infection; his grandson found him. Although there was no heart damage and the stroke was minor, the pneumonia is what took his life. He was 90 years old. Whenever I saw him, we'd talk about Saipan and hunting. My sister scanned some of his old hunting/fishing pictures and I figured you all would enjoy them. So here they are in no particular order. I'll post more as she sends them.
