In Memorandom

Dear Dad, Since you left this physical world, I can't visit or call you, can't give you a card, nor celebrate any special days with you, but I feel sure you receive my messages. I am dedicating this page in memory of you -- my father, my Dad, and my friend. You are constantly with me -- alive in my heart and in spirit..

~~My Dad, Philip Pope~~

Born: July 13, l913..Died: September 28, 1993.. This picture was taken on October 20, 1979..It was taken on Donnie's and my wedding day!

Dad loved Gladiolia's and raised them for many years and they were georgeous! He had every color under the sun and he used to get mad at me for picking them..you know how kids are with flowers. Just one of the many memories of me and Dad. Of course he didn't stay mad long..how could he, I was his doll and their only child, but I was not spoiled, like they say only children are.

My dad was a very special person. He never had a bad word to say about anyone and always tried to keep the peace. Dad was the oldest of 9 children and the only one that graduated from High School. He quit school to go to work to help his parents, my grandparents, raise the others, but finally went back and graduated with honors, which was quite an accomplishment back then.

He met my mom, who was 10 years younger..they married on June 13, l942..If they had both lived, they would have celebrated their 57th wedding anniversary this past June. I came along on May 23, l943. Dad was a very hard worker and was a chief inspector for the American Chain and Cable..Hazard Rope Divison for 35 years of dedicated service..They made wire-rope cable for ships, planes and boats..The building still stands in Wilkes-Barre and is now known as the Murray Complex, which houses numerous businesses.

I miss you daddy and there is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you and all the memories..good and bad..I will always love you..I am and will always be "Daddy's Little Girl"..I miss you so much. May you Rest In Peace..I will be with you somday.
