February 1, 2012: Happy Birthday to Carol Gilmore. The following was in a birthday card from Pastor John and Joan Glick in 2011: "The BIRTHDAY BEATITUDES" Blessed are those who take birthdays in stride, who can smile when the big day is here---Blessed are those who can look back with pride on another enjoyable year---Blessed are those who have stayed young-at heart, who will always seem right in their prime---Blessed are those who have mastered the art of living one day at a time---blessed are those who could never be said to have bowed to today's tears and sorrow---Blessed are those who keep looking ahead to a brighter and better tomorrow--- Blessed are those who have learned how to see all the beauty of sharing and giving---Blessed are those who've discovered the key to a life that is really worth living!
