"I've always maintained..."

Found some great photos of Dad/Uncle Bill that I hadn't seen before in Chats' photo stash: Smoking a corncob pipe and trying to grow a beard (most guys in Winston-Salem, N.C., Dad's hometown, were doing so to celebrate the town's 1948 centennial) after World War II.
Dad and Mom in the late 1960s or early 1970s, post-Vietnam.
Dad schmoozed with an old Army buddy (Fred Ricker, we think) in this undated photo.
Apparently no one would play Rummikube, Scrabble, Clue, Old Maid, 500, Twister or anything at all with Dad in this undated photo, so he played a hot game of Solitaire with himself.
Dad and Mom during a 1990s Elderhostel to the Grand Canyon.
Grandkids Zachary and Moriah posed in typical Miller fashion with Dad in this September 1995 photo. Unfortunately for us all, especially his grandkids, Dad died of melanoma on March 1, 1996. We miss him still!
