The Pay off

My father, Donald Norman Stacey Jr.

September 28, 1959 - March 20, 2020

Donnie was the man of the town, the life of the party, the man who could fix all your problems, the community father and my best friend. Cancer stole him from us and as awful as it was; he never lost his smile or his humor. He was strong till the end.

This portrait was done for his funeral and obituary. This scene is depicting one of my favorite memories. He was a locator for the city of Tulsa and often I would tag along with him to his jobs late at night as a child. These night were nice because it was when I got to see him in his element and learn so much knowledge he accrued over the years. These nights were peaceful and full of pink floyd.
