Dear Dolphin Talk,
Happy Birthday to Me – Nov. 29, 2019!
Just turned 91 years old today. Thanksgiving Day was yesterday, Nov. 28, 2019.
Alone and forgotten – almost!
Son came to my house and said, “Me and Grandson will fix you a Birthday Dinner.” O.K. I went and ate my birthday dinner there. Very nice.
I was born 91 years ago at Romerville, Texas. Doctor Oscar Ryan from Seaddrift came in his horse and buggy to deliver me. Don’t know what he got paid with because money was very scarce. “Yesterday” was a different world.
P.S. Am sending a picture of me when I was in Mrs. Wise’s 1st grade class in Seadrift. “Cute.” Sorry I ain’t cute any more.
Dorothy Geraldine Wilson

Editor’s Note: A late Happy Birthday wish to you, Mrs.Wilson! You do really look cute in that school picture. We do enjoy hearing from you from time to time.
