My husband's dad randomly went into a tattoo shop one day and said he always wanted to get a tattoo, but he didn't know what of. He walked out shortly after with this poorly drawn, wonky question mark in the middle of his forearm. He loved it because it made people question the tattoo, and he would say "to make you ask that" which was totally his personality.

Anyhow, his dad died a few years back. Last night he brought up wanting a tattoo, and was thinking a question mark and incorporating 1951-2020 (or just 51-20) into it. He has never gotten a tattoo before and I highly doubt he will get another after this. He does not want the same tattoo as his dad (truly, it was horrendous), but still a question mark as a nod to him. Husband has the same quirky personality that his dad did, so he does want it visible, but perhaps in a place that it isn't ALWAYS visible (thinking bicep/calf, etc).

Neither of us draws, and obviously the tattoo artist will have the final say, but as of right now we can't even picture how to incorporate the dates.
