Happy Birthday Momma!

    
On the occassion of her 75th birthday, I canvassed family and friends for some dirt on this woman.

I'm still searching.
 

"What more can I say about my Aunt Faye, to me she has the best of all traits, she is smart, funny, caring, a fabulous cook, sporty, master gardener, dedicated volunteer, organizer of family get togethers with an infectious laugh that makes you smile....She is our Martha Stewart only BETTER!! "                           

"Faye is one of those very special people on this earth. She's kind, loving, and has a great sense of humor. She's hard working, intelligent, and enthusiastic about life. She's the best friend and relative anyone could hope for. She's just about perfect! Of course, this is going to go to her head but she deserves it. How lucky you are to have her for a mother and how lucky I am to have her for a friend and sister-in-law."

"Your mom is my favourite person in the whole world. She is the sweetest , kindest person I know. She is always smiling and good natured."

"Every time I hear her name I smile. All my life my mother has always said, "Oh, I LOVE Faye. She is such a kind, sweet person." I have to agree. As a kid you react more to the feeling a person gives you more than anything else. Although I can't really remember specific conversations with Faye, I definitely remember the way she made me feel when I was with her. The best way I can describe it is warmth. You feel warm and safe and appreciated and totally unjudged in her presence."

Seems that everyone feels the way I do about this wonderful woman. (Despite the fact that she made a pact to celebrate her 75th with Carson by getting tattoos! So far I think that she is bluffing.)

Oh well, I have a few months to dig up something on my perfect brothers...
