Happy 90th Birthday, Mom!

Mary, circa 1940

Not everyone lives long enough to celebrate their 90th birthday, so I’m thrilled to report that my mother, Mary Vartanesian – Dabbakian, is marking this momentous occasion today!
Mom’s had her medical ups-and-downs, but is fortunate to be in relatively good health and of sound mind.


We’ll party in style a little after-the-fact, but it will be grand, just the same.

 


Mary, 2012

In the meantime…

Happy 90th Birthday, Mom; we love you!!
