I'm going to share some photos of our mom. She was a beauty. She'd been a model. She dated actors and hung out with the golden era of Hollywood's movie stars.

This was mom on her 90th birthday...

This was her just this past Saturday at her 100th bday party...

I'll dig out some glamor shots later.
