Happy Birthday to our Grandfather, the world’s icon of honesty through humor. January 29 is the 130th anniversary of the birth of William Claude Dukenfield - W.C. Fields - (January 29, 1880 - December 25, 1946). On the occasion of his 100th birthday, the U.S. Postal Service issued their iconic first-class W.C. Fields' Commemorative United States Postage Stamp with a ceremony at the Academy Awards Theatre in Beverly Hills, California. Thank you to our grandfather, W.C. Fields for the gift and joy of laughter he has shared with the world, for he truly brings generations together. The Great Man lives.

Here are a few additional family photos.
