Nan's 100th Birthday


Verna Mae Williams Rolen was the oldest of all her brothers and sisters when she died. And probably the healthiest of all them, throughout her whole life. She died at 102 years of age in 2006.


She had some beautiful cakes, homemade for her 100th birthday by Tim Baxter's mother-in-law (forgive my memory lapse). These cakes were among the best crafted, most beautiful and delicious cakes I've ever seen or sampled.


Bobby and Verna, son and mother, were a good pair together.


Nan and Linda Baxter are pictured here. Our Nan had many who loved her; even the spouses of her descendants just naturally considered her "theirs" and were loved as if they were her's. She was one-in-a-million. We were lucky to have her... for all those precious years.
