  • November 28th 2015 is my dad's 91st birthday! He has Alzheimer's and hasn't been able to leave the house since June 2014 when he shattered his pelvis...so going out to celebrate is an impossibility.
    Last year, in an attempt to make his birthday a special day under the circumstances, I put a request out on my personal Facebook page asking friends to send him a birthday card. I wasn't sure it would work, I wasn't sure anyone would take the time to send him one...to my surprise people started sharing my post and he got over 300 cards from 8 different countries! My father is a World War II vet. A man in the Navy even sent my dad his military coin in one of the cards, quite an honor!
    Experiencing all the love coming from friends and strangers around the world was beautiful and it made his day really special!
    I'm hoping that you will help me to make it a special day for him again this year! I'm asking everyone to PLEASE MAIL HIM A BIRTHDAY CARD again.
    They can be sent to;
    Norm Polner, 11 Robert Toner Blvd., Suite 5-112, Attleboro Falls, MA 02763.
    And please pass this on to anyone you know, let's see how many cards we can get for him this year!
    With many thanks and much appreciation!
    Love Norm & Elaine

    I wish I’d known about this channel a few years ago when he was alive, I’d have love to have sent him a card. Such a sweet man so lucky to have you Elaine! RIP Norm, gone but not forgotten x

    Also I’d love to get one of his paintings to hang up in my room? My grandpa served as a marine as uncle too but died of brain cancer and something else
