On this warm and sunny Saturday, Fay's family and friends had gathered from far and wide as we joined with her in reliving so many wonderful memories and making some new ones in the process.
Fay is sharp as can be and it was a joy to be in her company and to see her having so much fun.
Even at age 100, Fay continues to live in her own home, albeit since shortly after her 99th birthday with a caregiver, a lovely lady named Gloria.
What most matters to me is the precious time we have with Fay. For time is brief for all of us and it is in the now that we treasure her company.
That is why virtually every Saturday night Anne and I host a dinner at Chicago for Ribs in which Fay and Anne's mother Mary, age 92 are our prominent guests.
But yesterday, to see how Fay reveled in joy, surrounded by so many people who love her is what touched my heart. To me she is family and I love her.
