Happy Birthday!!
Dearest Sandra and Jeff,
Sixty for both of you, one week apart. We've been remembering — when each of you arrived, when you found each other on the other side of the world, and what came after.

You have created a life both admirable and full of love.

Jeff, our first born and only son. You are a master storyteller, carver of turkey, and work harder and smarter the older you get!

Sandra, who has put your mind to every thing you wanted, and accomplished each — becoming a designer at Banana Republic when no one made that move, the beautiful homes you have made wherever the family landed, the music you still play, the tennis you still chase.

Each of you good at being yourselves, and even better at being together.

You never asked the other to be less.

Twenty-five years on, with Sandra's piano in the house, Ryan stepping into his own life with marriage coming this fall, Ian launched.

Now Zurich, where the two of you began.

Happy birthdays to you both. We love you.

Have a beautiful trip in Switzerland.

Mother and Father
