Cause for Celebration!
Mr. Bob will soon be 100 Years Old!
⭐️World War II Veteran, Robert Aldrich will be 100 years old on June 20, this year, 2026. On SUNDAY, JUNE 21, we will celebrate his 100th birthday. If you are Bob’s friend or a family member, we would love to have you join us.
⭐️The event will be held at CENTERVILLE RIVER PARK, 142 North Central Avenue, Centerville, TN, from 3 pm to 7 pm.
⭐️The meal will be a VEGETARIAN POTLUCK, so please bring lots of food to share! Dessert will be provided.
⭐️Important: Please BRING LAWN CHAIRS or blankets to sit on.
⭐️If you have LAWN GAMES, such as croquet, Frisbees, wiffle ball, or others, they will be welcome! Also, the park has a pickle ball court, if you want to bring your paddles and balls.
Musicians, please bring your instruments!!
Bob grew up in a family where his siblings loved to sit around and play gospel and country gospel music. They had a string bass, a banjo, guitars, a steel guitar and other instruments. He didn’t play, but loved to listen. It will be a great time for all the musicians to jam together.
Here are some of his favorite songs: What a Day That Will Be, When the Roll is Called Up Yonder, When We All Get to Heaven, and other gospel/country gospel songs that you can think of.
Gifts
Rather than gifts, Bob has requested that people donate to Adventist World Radio (AWR). We will have addressed envelopes to AWR for you to take send. Thank you for considering this as an option. Bob was featured in one of their “commercials” when he was 95 years old. Below, is a link to AWR, so you can learn more about it.
With Gratitude
It is with gratitude to God that we celebrate Bob’s birthday. God is the loving Life Giver and the source of all joy and goodness. What a blessing my gentle and generous dad has been to me all these years!
Many thanks to everyone who has been such a help to me in making this party a reality. You know who you are, and I love and appreciate you!
