Original Creation

Patrolling Alaska

DBerkey 11 Jun 2024

When my wife and myself moved back to Oregon to take care of my mother we found ourselves in a beautiful retirement community 16 miles east of Salem. One of the residents is turning 90 on the 24th of June, and he is a former Captain of the United States Coast Guard Cutter Munro(WHEC724). He patrolled the west coast and Alaska and Hawaii. He is one of the most interesting people I have ever met and is a strong man of God. I thought this painting would make his 90th a little more special. Thanks for your service Capt. Siddall, and thanks for your true friendship.
