Dad

This is downtown Winfield, Kansas about a century ago. One hundred years ago today, my Father, Delbert W. Lacy was born in Winfield. I doubt he would have recalled this scene, though, because he was actually born on a farm in rural Winfield, Cowley County and moreover, his family moved from Kansas just before Dad's fourth birthday.

Dad was called home by his Heavenly Father just a bit over eleven years ago. I miss him intensely to this day.


Delbert W. Lacy 1910 - 1999 RIP


You may read Dad's story "In His Own Words" here.
