Happy 100th Birthday to you Dad!! I think this was the last picture taken, of all of your children together with you, on your birthday, before you went to be with your one true love, Jean Mary and of course, our Mom!! I miss you, every minute, of every day and love you very much and that will never change or diminish. My heart has been been broken and altered, since you left my world and I can't wait to be with you, Mom, Timmy, Bethany, Karen and all of our family, friends and loved ones...

80 years ago today, Francis "Bud" Walbridge met Jean Barry (that's you, Dad and Mom) on a blind date, in the Philippines, during WWll. Mom, you were an Army Nurse & Dad, you were in the Army during WWII. You two were, are & ALWAYS still remain, the most loving couple I've ever known! So in LOVE with each other!! It was rare, unique & so beautiful! I miss you and love you both!!

It's only been 11 years, since you left. Feels like 1000! That hole is still tremendously large & open in my heart. Nothing will ever fill that void.
