Dear GREAT uncle Marvin

I am so disappointed that I missed your anniverary on Saturday. 

HAPPY 48TH ANNIVERSARY OF YOUR 39TH BIRTHDAY FROM ALL OF US AT WINDY RIDGE! 

That would make you 87, right?  Oh goodness, I am dreadful with numbers.  Any which way, you are an inspiration.  A wonderful example of kindness & optimism.

WE LOVE YOU!  You can come live with us at Windy Ridge anytime.

"TALKED TO DONALD HANSON IN CHURCH.  HE WAS WONDERING HOW IT FELT TO BE OLD.  I TOLD HIM I WAS STILL HOLDING AT 39"
