The Renfrow Story

Yesterday the remarkable Edith Renfrow Smith turned 111 years old.

One hundred and eleven. ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN!!!!

She was joined in celebrating by three members of Team Renfrow – Tamara Beaubouef, Valeriya Woodard, and Feven Getachew. They had a special luncheon with Edith and her daughter Alice and other close friends.

Team Renfrow delivered a box filled with cards that were collected by the college to add to the many cards she had already received.

By all reports she continues to do quite well. In the photos she looks amazing and her bright smile, as always, radiates with love.

I talked with her on the phone a bit earlier today but she was having a very hard time hearing me. I likely caught her without her hearing aids. But she kept saying it was a very nice day and she is doing just fine. It’s hard to ask for much more than that.

So here’s to continued blessings for my dear friend and for her daughter, Alice, who is her greatest support and guardian. May God continue to bless them both.
