91NOT19...

1919 was the year he was born and today 16 December is his 91st Birthday! The lucky man is no other than our own Gramps...Long Live OP!  Since he lives up north and we're here..in two different states so, no celebration for him *yet*.  As for now, I would like to dedicate this Virtual Birthday Cake especially for him.  This is how the cake would look like if we were to put all 91 candles on top of it...

 Happy Birthday to you...Happy Birthday to you...Happy Birthday to OP...Happy  Birthday toooo youuuuu!

 Blast from the past...from Gramps vintage album


Gramps worked as a translator at the United States Information Service (USIS) in 1954.  He speaks fluent Dutch & of coz English;-)

Let see more photos of his "American days" in California...;-)


the scenery shots by Gramps..a camera lover

Hawaii, "The Aloha State" back in the 50's....



The photo I luv most....The "Henry Ford pose"lol


& 66 years later.......

He's the "Coolest" Gramps ever!  Although sometimes he can be very much "fussy" and  "difficult" *plus the hearing problem* we tend to lose our patience with him quite often...haihh:-(


He might look very old now but when it comes to "the good old days" stories...he can even remember the years & places he went to.  Being a 91 year old Gramps, he surely has an excellent memory. Just like the old saying "Memory like an elephant" - elephants never forget!

May Allah bless him with good health alwizzz...Insya'allah!

XOXO



p.s: When I called him late afternoon today, he sounded very happy and non-stopped talkin' bout the so many birthday wishes he received from "around the globe", his siblings, his children & family..
