NOTES : This is a Mark Family Birthday tradition. With only the candles
lit, we gather around the kitchen table and sing a discordant round of
"Happy Birthday". Somebody always says, "Sing it again." Uncle Kenny's
voice is always the loudest--and most out of tune. Sorry, Uncle Ken.
You know I love you dearly. You know you're my favorite. But you CAN'T
carry a tune.
