“Blessed indeed is the man who hears many gentle voices call him father!” -Lydia M. Child
This is my dad, Ralph Gordon van Deurs. This is his graduation picture taken back in 1947. He stood 6'11". This is one of my favorite pictures of him. Isn't he just the most handsome fellow?
It is hard to believe that Dad has been gone 19 years this past May. He was a wonderful dad with a great sense of humor and a love for the Lord.
I love you, Dad, and can't wait until the day that we will all be together again in God's glorious kingdom!
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY, PAPA!!
We LOVE you!

Wow, 6'11"! He was a tall guy, huh? I'm sorry you could be with him on Father's Day, but how wonderful to know that he's celebrating Father's Day with his Heavenly Father! Wow!
