A FHTV 77th on 07/07/07


Eileen Erickson celebrated her 77th birthday on 7/7/7. Please read the Arizona Star article by clicking on the link below.
On the day before I (JoAnn) was working at the gate office when a big- big black limo stopped just outside the office door. It was there to meet the reporters from the Daily Star. I got to meet Eileen and Arlo's 2 sons, one from CA and one from the midwest. In the car was "All" their family. All the sons and daughters and all the grandchildren. What a surprise! They came out of the limo one at a time to receive their hugs and kisses and then another family member would get out of the limo until all were greeted. Arlo had been planning this birthday surprise for over 3 months keeping it from Eileen the whole time. Both Eileen and Arlo have been walking around the Village about 6 inchs off the ground. About the time their feet touched the ground the article came out in the East Side insert. A couple of days later their feet were on the ground and the same article came out in the city wide paper. I understand Eileen tried the casino but to no avail.
