Peggy told me this story about the photo; "The one photo of me, Daddy and Mom was taken at St. Pete Beach, July 1996. We were going to a party on the beach and Daddy had found this crazy hat at the store earlier and being the crazy guy he was he wore it to the party. The party was alot of my friends getting together on the beach and they did not know Daddy, They all thought it was so cool that I would have such a hip Dad with long hair." Tim and Francis.
