Memory and Mom

Dad took this photo of Mom at Kahana Bay on their last road trip around the island before he passed away.  I don't believe that this was taken in July of 1973.  Dad passed on July 18, 1973.  He had been taken by ambulance from our home earlier that month.  He could no longer walk and Mom couldn't lift him to care for him.

He was admitted to Saint Francis Hospital where he died.

Still, I am sure that he took this picture of Mom when he was still able to travel with her around the island and that in her memory, this was how he would remember her.
