West Seattle weekend scene: Happy 100th birthday, Doris!

The photo is courtesy of Leanne, in honor of her neighbor Doris turning 100 today. Doris is at left in Leanne’s photo, with her friend Helen, a former roommate from the 1930s; Doris and husband Austin moved to West Seattle in the 1940s, buying a then-new house in which she lives to this day. Leanne – mom to 2-year-old Evan, who is also in the photo – adds of her neighbor, “She is an artist, born in Skagit County in 1913, and is dearly loved by her family and neighbors.” Happy birthday, Doris!

    Bob and Rose Youngs were very excited to host the party along with Doris’s son Gary and his wife Helen. What a beautiful day to celebrate a beautiful woman. Everyone had a great time.
