My Aunt Stella turned 97 years old today. She was a feminist and way before her time!
As a young girl living in the small coal mining town of Drumheller Canada she was recognized by California State University as gifted in the field of science. That was around the late 1940s! They gave her a full scholarship.
She was one of the only women studying in the department at the time!
I visited her in Pacific Palisades where she taught in the Public School system for over 40 years.
For her birthday as a surprise I went to visit her, and she looked awesome. She has no words of wisdom, maybe that's wisdom enough! And ...she loves me very much!
Happy BIRTHDAY Aunt Stella!!
I love you MORE!💜
Love
K
