A bright sunny day - 20 August 2019
Viridian Event Center
West Jordan, Utah
New members being welcomed to the
Governor's Century Club.
This years new members
were born in 1919.
Club membership now stands at 204,
With 145 women and 59 men.
Sixty-five Centenarians
And their guests
Attended today's celebration.
I was a guest of
Norton B. James Jr
Who turned 100 on 1 March 2019.
Utah Governor,
Gary R. Herbert
Was the highlight speaker,
Welcoming everyone,
And spreading good cheer
With stories and kind words.
Afterwards,
A delicious meal was served
And enjoyed by all.
Governor Herbert then spent time
With each Centenarian at their tables
For conversation and photos.
A wonderful time
Was had by all.
Since Linda Bella has congratulated you on reaching 100, I will do the same. Way to go, Hank!
