Happy 90th Birthday Dad McEwan! January 8

A tribute in words and pictures to Jack Berry McEwan
for his 90th birthday

Even at age 2 and 1/2, Rob liked airplanes, just like Dad.
Dad served as a B-17 pilot in the Pacific Theater during WWII.

Even at age 8, Michael loved and admired his Grandpa.
He is showing him his winning collage entitled "My Grandpa",
which included a picture of Grandpa, the temple,
and Pres. Ezra Taft Benson

Dad served in many callings in the church including bishopric
counselor, bishop, counselor in a stake presidency, Regional
Representative, Patriarch, counselor in the Los Angeles Temple
presidency, and president of the Los Angeles temple. In this
photo he is speaking at an area conference in CA. in the Rose Bowl.

"My Three Sons": always a source of pride
"We have no greater joy than to hear that our children walk in truth"
3 John 1-4

Dad has played an influential role in our lives as Pariarch of the McEwan family! He has been there for all the important occasions and is responsible for a lot of wonderful memories. He has likewise supported our children by attending blessings, baptisms, giving them their Patriarchal Blessings, attending their mission farewells and returns, and has sealed them to their spouses in the Nauvoo and Mesa Temples. His support is never-ending!

And who has been his constant companion for so many years? Betty Jean Clark McEwan!
We can hardly think of one without the other!

How can a few words and photos do justice to all the years of love and support that he has given us? The real tribute will be how we continue to live our lives as good fathers, mothers, sons, daughters, grand children and great-grandchildren, following his great example of love of family and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

WE LOVE YOU, DAD :)
