Pictures from old times

I found these as I was looking for Tom's mission pictures....

Tom, hamming it up with the other missionaries

Now we know that Taylor got his face pulling from the Duker side as well!

Anne from Softball Days...I think about 1998 would be my guess

Dad at Basic Training-obviously posing! 130 lbs!



  1. I have a new theory that weight was calculated differently back in the 50s/60s. I know guys who are 150 lbs and the same height as Dad and they look just as skinny as him in this picture. Conspiracy!

  1. Tom

    no way he is 130. I am 180 and I am not that fat.

  1. There was no fat there, my son and daughter. That was all muscle provided by the USMC Drill Instructors who sweated every lb. of fat off our bodies. 130, believe it or...well, don't believe it.

    I'll have to track down my medical records from 1970 and 1971 to verify for you disbelievers.

  1. Dad

    "Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end, we'd sing and dance........." Life just keeps marching on. Enjoy it while you can. I remember your Dad just like it was yesterday. Really miss him being around. I'm sure he'd enjoy the antics of the family if here were here today. He was a great and funny man. Tom, why didn't I see all these photos before. Were you on a mission or a photo journal trip? Anne, I see where the Beckster's like for bears comes from. And, the fit and trip guy at the bottom. Give me a hundred; piece of cake. Dad
