It's really 99th, but in our tradition/culture, you're automatically one y/o the moment you're born. Hence the 100th BD celebration. The man is the pillar of the extended family. My cousins/relatives from around the country, some I haven't seen in over 40 years, made the trip to make his day. Everyone had a great great time.

My sister ordered the cake, sent them an old pic of his when he was 44. Don't know how they did it, but they transferred his image onto the cake. Amazing.





My cousin leading the BD chant.

Happy Birthday to your father and I pray he has many more healthy years.

Let him know how much we appreciate him coming to America and sharing his son with us.

Pretty cool Q! He looks very spry for 99/100. My dad is 92 and it's catching up with him over the last year.

Best wishes to all!

Wow. Even him at 44, I would have guessed he would to be much younger.
