Virgil Lee “Papa” Clark

Eldon inspired me. This is one of my favorite photos from the Clark clan.  This is Papa Clark, Doug’s paternal grandfather, sitting on his bunk at Kadena Air Force Base in Okinawa in 1951.  You can see from this photo where Doug gets his great smile. . .the first time Keilana saw this photo, she brought it to me excitedly shouting, “Daddy! Daddy!” It took quite a lot of effort to convince her it was actually one of her grandpas.
