This article appeared in The Toronto Star recently asking readers to wish Rosemarie a happy 90th birthday, leaving an email for us. Without hesitation, I sent my wishes telling her that 'Toronto is thinking of her.'
It was a pleasant 'feel good' surprise to receive the following reply some days later. I was feeling a little down that morning and it was a great pick-me-up.Hello Christine
Thank you so much for sending birthday wishes to Mom. You certainly added to making Mom's 90th birthday such a special day. Mom is still smiling while reading all of the messages from Star readers over and over again. Mom keeps saying, "You see, there are so many beautiful people in our world!" Have a wonderful day and thank you for being such a kind, caring person.
Sincerely, Mike
Rosemarie O'Reilly's son
