Bea Miche is Turning 99 Years Young

Hi Thetis Island residents.  

Bea Michie of Dragon Rock on Pilkey Point Road is turning 99 years young this Friday the 12th of January.

Bea initially bought her property in the 70's and it's been in her family ever since.

It was suggested that it would be a nice idea for those that wanted to wish her a Happy Birthday could perhaps leave a note or a card for her at the Post Office to brighten her day.  I'm sure it would be appreciated.  Let’s honor the love and wisdom of our elders.

Thanks, in advance...

Richard and Tess DeMarco
