So a person I work with, at a different agency, has a wonderful mother who is so energetic and spirited and will turn 95 on 11/14/2024.

When she turned 90, her daughter asked for anyone and everyone to please send her mom a birthday card and her mom was so overwhelmed with joy at all the cards.

Now that she is turning 95, her daughter wants to do this again; even if it just general wishes from people who don’t know her.

I think a 95 year old woman who is a good person deserves to be FLOODED with birthday cards if that is what will bring joy to her at this age.

I ask that please as many people as possible mail a birthday card to her. I would love to flood her with cards!!

Send to:

Josie Castillo
663 Maria Elena
San Antonio, TX 78228

I would be forever grateful for those that do this.

Thanks so much. I envision “It’s a Wonderful Life” and lots of cards coming in instead of money. I think it will be great!

Ha! That sounds like a good deed that needs to be done. Thanks for the opportunity.

Makes me miss my mom and grandma.


It's all about clean living. Just do the right thing, and karma will help with the rest.

Thank you. Her daughter replied that she is diabetic, but doesn’t follow it closely and likes Belvita, almonds, etc.

If sending a snack, then send to:

1990 Salvador
San Antonio, Texas 78221

Also anyone can send cards to this address or the first one I gave. Her mom just moved in with her as she now needs to have someone around to watch her.

Thanks so much guys!

So cards can be sent to either:

Josie Castillo
663 Maria Elena
San Antonio, TX 78228

Or

Josie Castillo
1990 Salvador
San Antonio, Texas 78221

She is currently living at the latter address.

My father passed a few years ago at the age of 100, still sharp as a tack. Smile
