Dr. Addison Sandel Celebrates 90th BD
Dr. Addie Sandel recently celebrated her 90th birthday, when her sister organized a surprise celebration. “She set me up for a surprise party with all my relatives, cousins with spouses, and children from far and near,” said Addie. “Some flew, some drove, and some walked, but they all gathered at the flower and balloon bedecked community center in Florien.”
Addie’s sons took her out to dinner as a ruse, and lured her into the community center, she said. Her family and friends displayed hundreds of pictures of her, from birth to old age, she explained, including “a happy birthday banner with my young face and my old face printed on canvas that went half way across the room,” she said.
Dr. Sandel’s life and career activities were showcased in a special feature in the December 2015 issue of the Times.
