Dad was 97 years old yesterday. It is hard to believe he was born October 20, 1915.
Clara decided several weeks ago that this year we were going to make this a special birthday for him, and she succeeded. She contacted the pastor, Blake Dempsey, at Dad's church in Nashville, NC, Rock Creek Baptist Church and arranged to have a cover-dish dinner after church services on Sunday after his birthday.
All the congregation was invited to participate. There were around 130 people who helped our family celebrate, including our friends from Beaufort, Tom and Mabel Steepy, cousins from Greensboro, Bob and Rose Marshall, cousin from Spring Hope, Catherine Gupton, and every one of his Grandchildren, Slade Inscoe, Anthony Gagnon and Christopher Gagnon and Great Grandchildren, Anna Inscoe, Evan Inscoe and Olivia Gagnon.
It was a very special day.
