Dear Friends and Family,

Wow! That was a wonderful party last Saturday. Thank you so much for helping me celebrate my 100th birthday! The party was exactly as I wanted it, lots of visiting with old friends, neighbors and family. The day was perfect – sunshine, not too hot – and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.

Thank you, to my children especially, and to all those who helped make this such a special day for me. The flowers and other gifts were just beautiful, and the cake looked delicious, although I didn’t get a taste of it. Best of all, more than two hundred people came! Thanks to each and every one for helping me celebrate 100 wonderful years.

Affectionately,
Jane Barfoot-Hodde
