Dad turns 65

My dad has always celebrated his birthday alongside his CPA friend, who both had something to celebrate on April 15. This year, my dad has applied for Social Security, and he's in the process of dialing it back here at the office. He'll still come in on a daily basis, because he just can't stay away, but he'll probably spend most of his hours reading Max's and Brummett's blogs and will practice law on the side as a hobby. He started his legal career as a JAG officer in Vietnam, and then he joined his father-in-law Boyd Tackett here in Texarkana in private practice. He's achieved the highest pre-eminent rating by Martindale-Hubbell (AV), and as of this summer, he has practiced law for 40 years. Happy birthday, Dad.
