Reflections On Turning 85

Embracing Life With Gratitude
And Purpose
As I celebrated my 85th birthday this month, I found myself reflecting on the journey that has brought me here, surrounded by my loving family. Each year is a gift and reaching this milestone feels like a testament to the power of perseverance, a positive outlook and a commitment to staying active—both physically and mentally.
The joy of staying active.
One of the things that keeps me going is my passion for tennis. Having played USTA tennis for 30+ years and still playing, it's more than just a hobby; it's a way of life. Tennis helps keep me fit, sharpens my mind and reminds me that age is just a number.
