*Submitted to [Photo Friday](http://www.photofriday.com/) : [Father](http://www.photofriday.com/archives/challenge/000337.php) without any thought of getting a “notable”.*

I lost my father to cancer nearly three years ago. Still a day doesn’t pass without me missing him. I nearly didn’t enter this week, and then I though “to hell with it”. So there he is above, my father, in the last year of his life. Below are some rather earlier pictures of the same man.
