Kevin Francis Scannell – age 18 – Valparaiso High School Graduation – May 2015

Francis Michael Neylon – Kevin’s grandfather – age 18 –  United States Navy – Summer 1943

After graduating from high school, Kevin enrolled at DePaul University in Chicago. My dad entered the Navy through the gates of Soldier’s Field in Chicago.  Our children are free to pursue creative endeavors because our parents made it possible. And the Greatest Generation wouldn’t want it any other way.
