My father, Patrick Anthony Gainer, was an aerospace engineer for NASA until he retired in the 1980s. He also played oboe and English Horn for the Norfolk Symphony and Peninsula Symphony Orchestras. He now lives in Tanner, WV, where he is active in the perfection of home-made photographic formulas, and free-lance computer programming. He also continues to enjoy music as the choir director at Good Shepherd Church in Glenville. He is a genius.
As you can see, my father always had a beautiful model on hand to test his photographic formulas. My mother was not only beautiful, but a writer and artist. Some of her poems are shown at this link.
