SEVEN METICULOUS DECADES
Seventy years ago today, in the Indonesian town of Cimahi, Carel Jan Hendrik Brest van Kempen was born: mechanical and electrical engineer, geologist, physicist, architect, inventor, jazz musician, all-round Renaissance man, and my dad. Happy Birthday, Pop! Here's a smoke to your health!_____________________

Great Photo Carel! Happy Birthday to your dad.
Happy Birthday, Carel Sr!
Btw, I've been scanning and building a web gallery for my mom's side of the family and cigarettes are conspicuously present in many photos from the 1950s and 60s.
