HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GRANDMA RUTH!!This past Thursday, January 29, 2009, Dulcie Ruth Michael Shook celebrated her 107th birthday. The following link will take you to a small article that appeared in the online publication GoBlueRidge.Net. I hope the comments folks made appear at this connection as well.

I took this photo of her this past Christmas Day. She was alert, knew everyone, asked me to "get her a bite to eat," and wanted everyone to sing for her. My mom and Aunt Audrey visited her on Thursday, and when Mom asked her how old she was, Grandma replied rather forcefully, "I'm 107 years old today!"
My love for my grandmother is larger than the Universe, and I feel infinitely blessed she's been around to guide all of us throughout our lives. We are truly blessed.
