My Mom, Marie McDermott, made it "in style" to 101 years young today. Yesterday evening we headed out to the Isles Yacht Club to celebrate. My brother, Paul, and sister-in-law, Diane, visited for Thanksgiving and were here to help with the festivity. Also in attendance was Norma Jean Rich, Mom's best friend at South Port Square. Mom ordered her favorite prime rib while most of the rest of us opted for the sumptuous seafood buffet with made to order pasta. Yum!
The band, Commodore, and many others wished Mom well and sang Happy Birthday. The highlight was Mom dancing with Paul and me (Joanne) to "How Sweet It Is to be Loved by You." It was a special day that I will treasure and always remember.
