B-day wishes
Family and staff gathered at the Sephardic Home bedecked with b-day balloons for the happy occasion, on Aug. 17 to celebrate the milestone 100th birthday of Carrie (Katy) Cohen.
Carrie, who was born in Brooklyn on Aug. 20, 1914, celebrated with family members including niece Marsha Rosenberg and husband Marvin, granddaughter Alyssa Pollack with 17-month-old son Aiden Pollack, son Robert Shaw, great-niece Susan Antman, niece Diane Frenkel, great-niece Teri Golub and husband Barry, great-nephew Paul Kutcher with wife Laurie and children Ben and Gavin, and great-nephew Stuart Warshowsky.
Carrie, who moved into the Sephardic Home this past May, according to great-niece Susan, “has lived independently for all her adult life, she is in good health and very coherent. She enjoyed the day very much.”
Our shutterbug Steve Solomonson was on hand to snap away the pix to remember the magic moments.
Standing O offers this wish for Carrie (Katy) Cohen, “Here’s to another 100 years of birthdays — may each day be filled with joy, happiness, and health.”
