My Hero My Dad LeRoi Austin SR.

My dad served in the US Navy on the Boxer during the Korean War. He and mom raised us 6 kids to Love, Honor and Respect ourselves and others. We lost our dad Feb 04, 2005, 10 months after he and mom remarried on their 50th anniversary. Dad would drive his 5th wheel around and pick up as many of us (grown and had our own kids) that were able to go and take us to see where he lived when he was a child and his family's final resting places. We never got tired of those trips! And he would tell us stories of his growing up!! Oh how we miss those stories!! If there were stairs to heaven I would be visiting my dad!! I sure do love and miss my dad, my Hero!!!
