Happy Birthday, Cokey! (a.k.a. The Queen)

As promised, below are some pictures from "The Queen's" 80th Birthday party held at The Club on Labor Day weekend.  Her actual birthday is today, September 15th.  So.... Happy 80th Birthday G-L-O-R-I-A! 

The party was a blast.  Anne, Terri (Shug), and SuSu did a great job planning and executing such a special event.  All grandkids, both biological and "adopted," gave a toast to the Q, and shared a special memory with the group.  It was a great gathering that we will all remember for a long time to come.  Thanks to everyone who helped plan!  (P.S.  The story of the nametags is a long one)

Here are a few snapshots.
