IN LOVING MEMORY OF KANDA MICHELLE JACOBS

Grandmother's 90th Birthday

 

Grandmother Helen was a "BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY." AND

NOW IS A "90" YEARS YOUNG BEAUTIFUL LADY

To live to be 90 years young, well, what an honor as our

Grandma Helen Jacobs  has just turned 90 years young on

August 2, 2006. 

BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS FOR A BEAUTIFUL LADY

 

Because of limited time, many of her great grandchildren

and grandchildren celebrated her 90th birthday on two

different days, so she was blessed with two celebrations

 since most of her family could not be together at one time.

 

Her grandson, Steve, had made plans to go out on the town,

 picking her up in a limo, but it will have to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

but since our area is a small population and one hundred

miles from any major city, unfortunately his surprise

could not take place.

 

With her health issues, Grandmother felt

she should not attend her birthday dinner at Ethridges, 

Friday evening, in Flora, IL, but she surely made up for it on

 Saturday and since her granddaughter, Susan, had been

visiting with her the week of her 90th birthday, she and Susan

prepared a wonderful meal for Saturday lunch so Grandma

was back in the saddle cooking for a large group,

with the help of her granddaughter and enjoying

every minute of it.   

 

"SURPRISE,"  daughter Kay, granddaughters Susan and Gina and I,

daughter in law, pushed Grandmother in her wheel chair 

into our Brand New Super Walmart on August 5th of 2006

and since she enjoys making a few crafts, she, being inside

the big Super Walmart, could select all the craft supplies she

wanted which was a plus, since she usually would have someone

pick up her supplies, trying to descibe the buttons, lace, etc

she would need to make her variety of "CUTE" 

"Bonnet Babies."

 

My heart hurt as we celebrated and "OUR PRECIOUS KANDA"

was not present as was her brother, JERRIN.

 

I, Kanda's mom just CONTINUED thinking about her

not being a part of this wonderful celebration of her

GRANDMOTHER'S 90TH BIRTHDAY and having the opportunity to

visit with many of her family members from NORTHERN ILLINOIS

 present for this wonderful celebration.

 

Many " HEART TUGGER" pictures to follow along with,

of course, our 90 year YOUNG LOVELY"QUEEN"

( GRANDMA HELEN JACOBS.)

HAPPY 90TH BIRTHDAY,

AUGUST 2, 2006,  GRANDMA HELEN,

FROM YOUR FAMILY.

"WE LOVE YOU"
