Special Birthday Issue
September 8th is a birthday shared by two fabulous women, each talented and glamorous in her own way. The woman on the right is the one-and-only Patsy Cline, born 8 September 1932. Patsy, of course, died at the young age of 30 when a plane crash ended her brilliant singing career. But the lovely woman on the left, born 8 September 1931, just celebrated her 75th birthday yesterday and is still going strong. A famous Hollywood starlet? A Russian ballerina? Nope. That's my mom, Janet. So join me in wishing them both a happy birthday.

Hey Janet,
Happy Birthday! It's been quite a while since we spoke. I may be visiting some friends in Seattle this November - not sure yet. Perhaps we can meet...

Hi Janet,
Happy Birthday! I haven't been to Seattle in a long time, but I still remember our delightful lunch at your (former) house.
Keep on keeping on!

Happy birthday, Janet!
As an almost 50-year-old woman, I am always searching for women who are growing older with grace and strength and wisdom. You definitely fit the bill!
Wishing you a lovely birthday. Hope to see you soon in Israel.
