The Bob Ashmeades, who
visited Bob's mother, Effie,
recently in Prineville says she
is doing well and already
happily anticipating Mar. 16,
which will mark Effie's cen
tenarian birth date.
I have a poem Effie gave me
a lot of years ago, "Be True to
Yourself."
It may not have had a great
bearing on her longevity, but
knowing her as a friend,
certainly it has put a store of
wealth into those years, valu
able to all.
