The seniors鈥� centre at Maymont was rocking on the afternoon and evening of Jan. 17. The occasion was the 90th birthday of Tom Caldwell.
The afternoon tea saw many friends and relatives attend.
The centre was bursting at the seams with family, friends and fellow musicians attending the potluck supper.
Musical entertainment followed the meal with Pious Fitz on accordion, Bert Carpentier on the sticks, Mel Deagnon on guitar/vocals, Ernie Degenhardt on banjo, Dale Paulow on drums, Walt Dumont on bass guitar/vocals, Carl Ross on guitar/vocals and Tom Caldwell on mouth organ.
There was dancing, singing and much visiting and picture-taking. There were even five-generation pictures taken.
Tom鈥檚 brother Bill and wife Jan from Meadow Lake attended. The big surprise was a visit from Tom鈥檚 grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren. They came from Alberta and Manitoba.
Cards and greetings were read from family and friends who were unable to attend.
Looking forward to his 鈥渢urkey fry鈥� in the summer, Tom was very happy with the turnout stating, 鈥淚 didn鈥檛 know I had so many friends!鈥� He is looking forward to his 95th birthday and family and friends are already preparing for it.
Found at the tea was a car remote. It was found in a baby鈥檚 car seat which was located under the clothes rack. Anyone missing one, contact Judy Gallie in Maymont.
