My 80th birthday celebration with proteges and fashion meet up friends

It was the greatest birthday celebration, at the Charlesgate Hotel, by the Boston Fashion Industry Meetup. On the left is Ann Steeves (Gorgeousfabrics.com) then me. On the right are 3 proteges, Ann Russo (Technical Design Services), Tess Coburn (Teresacrowninshield.com) and Mika Nakafuji.

Here's two of my favorite people. Ron Ranere, who started the Boston Fashion Industry Meetup with me in 2004 and a great photographer - and his wife, Charline, both who have done so much for me.
















The delicious birthday cake made by Kathleen Wright, another protege, who, unfortunately could not make the celebration.

Thank, thank you to all.
