Today is Polly's 105th birthday. Carolyn Parsons was born in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, on February 7, 1904, the first child and only daughter of Frank Parsons and Minnie Ellman Parsons. We celebrate with her description of the party for her 90th birthday at the Schmitt Home in Richland Center.
(1994 February 8)
What a birthday that was - yesterday. We gathered all in the dining room. Jill and I passed around coffee or juice and cake Joan made and others. Henry K who sings in our church choir leaned over and said, "Say you want me to sing Danny Boy. It's the only one I know." So I said, "Of course I do," and he pops up and says, "Polly wants me to sing Danny Boy." And off he went - adding to the fun. Especially for me.
