Happy Father's Day!

 


To all the dads out there, best wishes for a great day!

Here are a couple of Paco dads...

Deputy Paco, handing out, I dunno, invitations to the Sheriff's Department Square Dance Ball or something (don't know who the state trooper is).


Many years later, here's Old Paco enjoying his second career as what he called a "garbage magnate", founder of the Alcart Corporation, a waste disposal service. Y'all probably remember the slogan: "Satisfaction guaranteed, or double your trash back."


Update  Here's a nice Father's Day prayer.
