The reason we all went to Spain was to see my dad recieve an Doctor Honoris Causa from the University of Miguel Hernandez in Elche, Spain. This award is an extremely special honor bestowed upon someone who has made great contributions to his field of research and teaching. It was a great excuse to get all of my dad's family together, including his wife and her two daughters and granddaughter. We really enjoyed spending time with Knox, Julie, Gemma, Andy, baby Savannah, and Heidi!
Dad's ceremony was really nice. He got a fancy outfit, hat, ring, gloves and honorary degree. They even had a pianist play a marvelous jazz ensemble for him during the ceremony.
Thanks for inviting us, Dad! Great job!
