 Grandpa was born on July 3, 1914. Our wedding day was his 79th birthday. He died on March 11, 2011 at age 96.

It was to his and Grandma's house that we always went for various Jewish holidays. Luckily, we all lived in Atlanta, so we also got to see them even without a formal occasion.

This was on his balcony, with a cloudy sky off to the left (his right).

Editing: soft light layers to darken the left side and lighten the right side, some selective sharpening, and reducing saturation.
