Traci's 60th birthday celebration! A few words from Traci to her guests and to the Annuciation Church.... Once upon a time, in a land not so far away, there was a girl named Traci. Traci was a dreamer, an adventurer, and above all, a lover of stories. She adored the magic found within the pages of her beloved books, where fairytales, fables, and myths whisked her away to enchanted lands. These stories taught her that truth always prevails over lies, generosity is rewarded, and that with hard work and love, any obstacle can be overcome. Most importantly, she learned that good triumphs over evil and that mercy and kindness are the greatest powers of all. As I stand here today, surrounded by my dear friends and family, I realize that each one of us has our own unique story to tell. My story, like many of those fairytales, has not been without its challenges. I've faced adversity and encountered limitations, but I've come to understand that these trials can inspire us to reach new heights we might not have otherwise aspired to. Throughout my journey, I've discovered the incredible power of resilience. Despite the obstacles and setbacks, I've been blessed with countless joyous and happy moments – moments just like today. These moments are the chapters in my story that I cherish the most. To my wonderful friends and family, thank you for being such an integral part of my story. Your unwavering support has been my strength, your kindness has been my comfort, and your love has been my guiding light. You all have hearts of gold, and I am eternally grateful for each and every one of you. I'd like to end with a note to the venue... Dear Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church, I wanted to extend my deepest gratitude for providing such a wonderful venue for my birthday party. Your professionalism and courtesy were evident throughout the entire event, and I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful setting. Thank you for being a part of my birthday story and making the celebration truly memorable. Your efforts and hospitality are greatly appreciated. Warm regards, Traci Sheridan
