Two years ago, MaryB broke her leg. The statistics for people over 90 after a major break aren’t very encouraging—but she clearly didn’t get the memo. Today at 93 she was out enjoying the Snake Saturday Irish parade (her choice). It’s been such a tough road to go down together but times like this are rewarding. Enjoying these bonus years, and celebrating every one of them. ☘️

An outing to see Titanic: An Immersive Experience at Union Station KC this week offered cool effects and facts about the doomed voyage. It was eerie to visualize what it was like in rising waters, watch the boat sink, and view the lifeboats far from capacity floating in the water. So many more could have been saved.

In the words of a song we used to sing in Girl Scouts: 🎶 Ooooh they built the ship Titanic, to sail the ocean blue. And they thought they had a ship that the water would never go through. But the Good Lord raised his hand, said this ship will never land. It was sad when the grey ship went down.🎶

Had to include a photo from lunch that followed - the most delicious Southern food at the popular Peachtree Cafe’teria.

Happy New Year! 🎉 MaryB rang in 2025 at Riverstone Retirement Resort with the amazing Overtones of Kansas City—what a great show! Even when the Amazon ball drop failed, the crowd still cheered like champs and had a blast.

Thank you, Julie & Joe, for such a fun night and for including us.

Seasons Greetings from MaryB in her church home FBC Marshall, right where she belongs. This year, as some close connections grew quiet, her church family was there with cards, visits, and kind hellos. Thank you for remembering her! 💜

MaryB had a ‘blast’ enjoying TubaChristmas at Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts! 🎄🎶
More than 650 tubas filled the hall across two concerts, with musicians ranging in age from 11 to 84½. Proof that holiday cheer—and tuba power—has no age limit! 🎺✨

A heartwarming moment today during a quick visit to MaryB’s longtime workplace — a former colleague sought her out when they heard she was there. 💛 Thank you, Marla Robbins, it meant so much for her to be remembered. Some connections never fade. Seeing you and Courtney Angelhow made her day!

Lunch with MHS Class of 1950 classmate Robbie Hawkins Gorman at a delightful Independence restaurant that reminded us both of being in a different place (New Orleans for Robbie; Carmel-by-the Sea for me). Being able to stay connected and spend time together after all these years has always been important to MaryB.

Can anyone help us locate these “lost“ classmates (born 1931-1932)?
