Grandma is turning 100 - Adeline Lippoldt

For some reason I really don't like bringing my family into the business of county government.  Sure, my family came with me to the swearing in and other ceremonial occasions. Once Jenn came to the county building for something with Adam and I had to be prodded by McGowan to introduce them.  I just like keeping them out of it.

A huge exception for me will be this Tuesday.  My grandmother in turning 100 years old on Friday.

She lives here in Woodland at the Californian and was an active volunteer at the Gibson Mansion and Woodland Memorial Hospital for more than 20 years.

So she is coming to the Board meeting on Tuesday with my Mom and I am giving her a resolution from the county to celebrate her 100th birthday.   It will take 5 minutes at the start of the meeting -- but I think it is worth it.

In short -- Grandma rocks.

I completely recognize this is a personal thing for me. It also may not appear to be the highest priority for county government in difficult times but this woman means a great deal to me and I think she deserves the recognition.
