Cheers to our three October honorees: Matt, Oct 6; Joe, Oct 9; and Chris Oct 18!
In Auburn, long ago, Oct 9 was almost a holiday. In 1953, the Elys had a baby boy which was huge news. It happened on a Friday morning and the word quickly spread throughout the town. AHS had its Homecoming football game that night so of course everyone was saying "The Elys have a boy! Can you believe it?" There was no need for a PA announcement. In Auburn, everyone just knows!
In his senior year at AHS, it snowed on Oct 9 and Joe played football in the mud! How's that for a memory! Usually, though, the weather is gorgeous in early October.... hope it is wherever you are too!
If you have some special memories for any of our October birthday people, just add them!
