Birthday- Thompson, Maude 4

93rd Birthday Celebration For Maude

The home of Donald and Vena Mae Thompson was the location chosen for the birthday celebrations for his mother, Maude Thompson, born May 17, 1889.

Present for the Sunday dinner were the formerly mentioned and Maude’s granddaughter Janet (Mrs. Irvan Mulanax), her two sons and a daughter, Maude’s grandson, Donald Ray, and his son could not be present.

On Monday, Vena prepared a deer steak dinner for a group of ladies who
meet each week in Mrs. Thompson's home. Those present were: Lottie Stum, Rossville; Mary McLin, Silver Lake; Esther Kruger, Bertha Eakin, Pauline Miller, Muriel Huggins and Cecile Zlatnik, all from Delia.

Maude was born in Rockfort, Mo. In 1911, she married Christopher Thompson. He lived until 1967.

Following their marriage they moved to Alma, Ark., for a short time. Maude remembers traveling in a covered wagon, the worst part of which was the packing and unpacking of the dishes each time they stopped to prepare a meal enroute. Most of their married life was spent in the Delia area. They lost one daughter when she was quite young.

Maude has a remarkable memory. She has been "hospitalized only four times. She continues to read and keeps an interest in local and world affairs. She has retired from quilting, but watches and listens to baseball games, keeping close tabs on the Kansas City Royals.

Congratulations and God bless you, Maude! We hope you live to enjoy many more happy birthdays!
