Don Soper turns 100 today!

Dad and his older brother Carroll -- I'm guessing sometime in 1910 but, of course, I wasn't there so I can't be sure.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY POP!

And thanks Dad. I can't begin to tell you how much I owe you for giving me my life back in 1958 and how much more Susie and I owe you for helping to point us on our present journey. The steak we ordered for you tonight brought back affectionate memories of so many dinners we had with you over the years -- almost always involving steak in some form or another -- at the Brown Jug and then at Stoney's in Dalton City. Great food but even greater company.

I love you dad. Always have. Always will.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY POP!
