This beautiful child
was born on this day in 1932.
She grew up to be an intelligent, funny, kind-hearted, loyal, generous, compassionate, understanding, artistic, quick-witted woman.
She married a young man in 1952, in a garden ceremony at her family's home.
They had a family of three kids,
(Deb, Jim, me & Mom on Maui, 1972)
and I'm blessed to be one of them.
Happy Birthday, Mom!
We love you!

Happy Birthday to your dear Mom, I am sure she is a delightful person, filled with good humor, compassion, a good friend and a wonderful wife.
How would I know? Because the apple never falls far from the tree.
Tell David Happy B-day from us too. I wish he could come on the 11th. Have a safe trip and a wonderful Thanksgiving.
You are such a kind, loving person and now I understand where it comes from: Your mom. Hope your birthday is wonderful.
My gosh, another birthday to celebrate! What a lovely, classy lady your mom is. It's no wonder her daughter is so awesome!
The family photo is gorgeous. You are so blessed to have your parents still with you.
