You're Only Old Once

Two weeks ago I got to do something I've never done before. I attended Uncle Luke Borger's 100th birthday party. While his memory has become a little fuzzier and his body somewhat frailer, it is amazing to be in the presence who has really lived all of his 100 years! He and Aunt Mary were always on the go, but never placed themselves above their faith and obligations to others. I'll forever be grateful that they came south in the 1950's. Otherwise I would not be here today because Mom and Dad would never have met!
