Of corse the memory fades and 24hr nurses escort her around the house like a champagne glass ready to tip over. I am so proud to enjoy the stories and history she tells each time I visit her.<br />StevenTepe@gmail.com<br />And yes, she will read your posts from a google phone in the palm of her hands, ill let her know you are thinking of her.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09572036846443603080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-56122885702405114672009-12-04T00:51:34.796-08:002009-12-04T00:51:34.796-08:00Thanks, everyone!Thanks, everyone!Laurie Alleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14460272282273523408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-37753332738307255442009-12-03T20:30:14.406-08:002009-12-03T20:30:14.406-08:00LA: Who IS Gladys May Tepe, and what did she do to...LA: Who IS Gladys May Tepe, and what did she do to earn a salute on the Rialto marquee instead of on Willard Scott's NBC Smuckers jelly jar?<br /><br />I hope she acted and wrote poetry in her youth that later embarrassed her and lived in a lighthouse the year she was 17... and can we invite her out for a glass of sherry?Yakpatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09788658793693064873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-29763263651768951182009-12-03T13:20:49.547-08:002009-12-03T13:20:49.547-08:00HAPPY BIRTHDAY Gladys May Tepe!HAPPY BIRTHDAY Gladys May Tepe!Shannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01608168607510299123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-66050512339233192072009-12-03T10:21:53.151-08:002009-12-03T10:21:53.151-08:00Happy birthday Gladys May Tepe.

Gone are all of the 'y' names too, Mary, Judy, Suzy, Cindy and their 'ie' counterparts like Connie and Candie, . Even the longer names for which many of those are derived(Marion, Judith, Susan, Cynthia, Constance)have lost their popularity as well. You just don't see a little girl in her eyelet socks named Melva or Mamie or Myrna any more. <br /><br />It is amazing what's happened in a century. Things that we take for granted were cutting edge. Many things that made life simpler then have long gone by the wayside, for more modern and technologically advanced versions. Can you imagine what people would think then if you told them that people would have a talking device attached to their ear or in their pockets at all times? Wouldn't they marvel in disbelief that you could watch a "talkie" in such real form on a giant glass screen in your own home? And don't get me started on texting. <br /><br />Let's here it for Gladys May Tepe and may her 100th year be one filled with love and happiness.Judy Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05081035351814381283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-48332511873491709262009-12-03T03:21:16.276-08:002009-12-03T03:21:16.276-08:00Hi southpasadena
