Hi Valerie, I'm so glad you enjoyed the videos from your many friends and family. We're thinking of you today. Frank is five months older than you are and still going strong. Happy Birthday to you and best wishes to Bill on Father's Day. Love, Geri and Frank.

HI Valerie, I didn't know how to make a video and send it to you! So here are good wishes from Neanderthal woman, who is behind the times. I'm sure your whole family is so proud of you, you were a great family team.
Summer has arrived to NH with today in the 90's. It's so weird being out and about, and seeing so many places impacted by the virus, some places feel like ghost towns. I hope you and yours have a great summer ahead, I"d love to see your place in Anacortes. Meanwhile, love to you and Bill from afar, Anne Hartmann

A very Happy Birthday to you Valerie, from Bill and Micki on Lopez! GREAT to see your happy smile!

Hi Valerie, may the joy that you have spread in the past come back to you on this day. Wishing you a very happy birthday!
Jim and Jessica

Larry and I wish you a very Happy Birthday! Glad you are doing so well!

Dang, didn't get myself organized in time for the video!!! Wishing you not only an awesome belated birthday, but an even better year!!!
XXOO, Sako

Hi Valerie and a very happy birthday to you!!
You are so loved!
So glad you are back in the great northwest and that you are doing so well.
Do you remember the Courtright Reservoir and the little cabin? I have remolded it , and made it a lot bigger, and have really been enjoying it.
Still very beautiful up there. Take care.
Love, Jeanne

I didn't realize it was Valerie's birthday, but let me add Happy Birthday from me and Vicki!! So glad to hear how well she is doing... Please send hugs from us.

Happy Birthday, Valerie,
We certainly hope your very special day is going just fine. Between Gayle, Eric and even Greg here at the HFM, I've tried to keep abreast of how you're doing. Sue and I have known you were back here in Anacortes, but I didn't want to call or intrude on your quiet space. Greg and Julie have kept me informed and I can wait until I can get back to the HFM and show the public the amazing flying machines and talk about my favorite,- the Apollo Program and Apollo 8.

I really miss your smiling face and personality from all those great days at the OICMF, or even visiting your beautiful waterfront home on Orcas. I look forward to seeing you soon, maybe at the HFM, whenever we can open again. Sue and I saw two warbirds flying over our home the other day and they were headed in the direction of the museum. I assumed they were from the HFM and possibly piloted by Greg, Alan, or even Bill, getting some hours in their log books. They both looked silver, like the North American T6-D, built by my old company, -North American, but maybe the other was the T6-F and I couldn't see the blue and yellow color. I do have old eyes.

Again, have a very happy day.

With Love,

Tom & Sue Carroll

Happy Happy Birthday, Valerie. I missed the birthday video but still sending warm healthy wishes to you on your birthday. xo Lauren Donner
