Readers invited to send birthday wishes

Dear Peninsula Clarion readers:

Helen Rodgers will be 93 years young on April 21. She doesn’t get out and kick up her heels like she used to. Therefore, as a birthday celebration, Helen’s family is asking anyone who knows Helen or knows of her, to please send her birthday wishes via a card. A card shower will perfect for her.

Helen Rodgers

48343 Grant Ave.

Kenai, AK 99611

Thank you in advance for those who choose to participate.
