Happy Birthday Reno...

Happy 90th Birthday Grandpa Reno! (or as my kids fondly refer to you as Papa Reno) All of my Grandfathers had passed away before I was born, so Reno is the only Grandfather I have ever known. (Even though he is my Grandfather through marriage.) He is very dear to me and one of the funniest men you have ever met. Reno loves sports, never missing one of Rick's games in high school and attending most of the baseball games on Sunday afternoons for the BABA. He had lived alone in his apartment since his wife Elva died 8 years ago up until last week when he moved into a nursing home. It took him until he reached the age of 90 to start slowing down. Have a wonderful birthday Grandpa, we love you!
