Grandpa



Oh, look, it's Richard Douglas Huestis, my father's father, and it's 1924, the year before my father was born. This portrait by an unknown photographer (I colored it) was taken when my grandfather was a young executive at the Bell Telephone Company of Canada.

Funny how those 'staches really dropped in popularity a few years later.

Oh, right . . .

P.S. Did he have green eyes for real? That's a lovely color you chose.
