Happy Birthday Leontine T. Russell

A mother's happiness is like a beacon, lighting up the future but reflected also on the past in the guise of fond memories. 

.....Honore de Balzac

Happy Birthday Mom.

Leontine T. Russell - 1922 to 1990 

"Thank you  - miss you"

"And so our mothers and grandmothers have, more often than not anonymously, handed on the creative spark, the seed of the flower they themselves never hoped to see - or like a sealed letter they could not plainly read."

...... Alice Walker
