My dear sister Gloria Rae (Kleppinger) Huizenga is celebrating her birthday today! Let's just say she was an "early" Baby Boomer. She prefers to look forward from these wintry days to the warmth of spring, and so she chose this flowery tie for me to wear in her honor. When our mom wrote her name as "Glo," she almost always surrounded it with sunshiny "rays."
