Theresa celebrated her birthday this past Sunday with her family and friends at the Westchester Golf Club. Her Sign In Board was a portrait of her posing next to a family tree representing the seeds that grew her and the limbs and branches she helped to grow. The basic design was borrowed from the image of the Celtic Tree-of-Life, the large terra cotta pot inscribed with the names of her parents, and a Celtic band winding from left to right. The trunk was inscribed with her own information, and the 5 main branches represented her 5 sons, each festooned with a symbol of each of their professions; stethoscope, Bible, school notebook, ledger book, and psychology tome. The branches and leaves contained the names of the children and grandchildren. A leprechaun leans against the tree trunk, and the scene behind is a simple landscape of County Cooraclare, Ireland. Shamrocks are intertwined amongst the tree leaves.
