How nice of you all to make this thread. I didn't have a big family birthday party like we used to do. Only one of my kid could come and a Grand-daughter came. We had a nice time but what I loved getting the most was a Birthday Book--it was fantastic.

Patty, my wife, contacted all our kids, many friends, and some old colleagues and asked them to write a short note about what they would like to say to me--what memories they want to share. Then she put it altogether in a big notebook. It was touching--my wife and I both cried and laughed some as we read their comments about great vacations, ways we had helped each other, successes and disappointments.

Thanks for wishing me happy birthday online at PsychCentral.
