Happy Birthday, Katie O!

Dear Hearts,

November 29th is the birthday of Katherine Olivia Sullivan Huffman: daughter of Joan and Mike; sister of John; wife of Ryan; mother of Caroline, Gracie and June; cousin, niece and friend to many more lucky folks.

Kate has faced many challenges this year professionally and has moved through them with courage and grace. Mt. Baldy village suffered physically and emotionally during the Bridge Fire, when residents were evacuated for over a week while a well-populated canyon in the heart of the village was devastated by the Bridge Fire. As the principal and superintendent of Mt. Baldy School, Kate's responsibilities were widespread and constant. Faculty and staff, parents and students, community members looked to her for information, guidance, resources and more. Kate provided for them while also holding her own family close with comfort and support.

Thankfully, Kate and Ryan's home was not affected and life in Baldy is getting back to normal for the lucky folks. 

Happy Birthday, Katie O., and may you have 84 more healthy ones, by your own mother's, (Aunt Joannie Sullivan's), Law of Longevity Aspiration of 2008.

God bless us and save us and keep us from harm.

Love,
Patty
