Today is our father’s 103rd birthday. In his later life, He and my mother, were founding members of the American Indian Science and Engineering Society(AISES), Council of Elders.
Both our parents loved to attend both the AISES National Conference and Leadership Gathering. Being with and visiting with AISES students, staff, board, elders, and participants, was one of their great joys of their elder years.
This poem was written in his honor by AISES member, Michael Arvitt, San Felipe Pueblo. We cherish the memories of our grandparents, parents and other beloved friends and relatives, just like so many you cherish the memories of your beloved ones, as well!
