Love you, Grandma


Happy Birthday, Grandma! I always loved snuggling with you and Grandpa in bed when I came to visit. I miss my footsies. Love you, Emily

Love, Conor


Grandma, thanks for all the memories in Fairbanks and Spokane. Love, Conor

Fisherwoman of fish and men!



No matter what Matt claims, this picture proves that you lay claim to the biggest fish in Rudolf lore. However, in a more important fishing of sorts, the catch you made in Kerm and the babe he landed in you are the best lore of all. Happy 90th! Your main catch would certainly be proud.
Love, murph

Love, Noey, Will, and James


Happy birthday, Grandma. Thank you for being the best grandma. I like playing cards with you and going to the lake with you. (Noey) Grandma, you score. Without you we'd have no speed or agility. You are the best. (Will and James.)

Love, Sister Rosemary


Dear Frances,

Greetings and best wishes to you and your family on your 90th birthday!


Pope Benedict XVI told the youth at the World Youth Day in Australia this past July, “If you wish to remain young, seek Christ.” I’m going to add that if you wish to live a long life, seek Christ. You have sought Christ in your life since you were baptized in St. Malachy’s Church in Geneseo, Illinois. He has rewarded you a great gift of long life. Your life has reflected Christ’s teachings and you have been a great example to all of us. You have always been kind, loving, and generous to me, Fran, and I close with heartfelt love to you, to your children, and gratitude to Kerm.


Love and prayers,


Rosemary

Love, Sister Pat
