May 21st: 100th Birthday Celebration

Dallas resident Frances Gavigan celebrated her 100th birthday at the Dallas Days Bicentennial History & Art Display on May 21st. Mrs. Gavigan's secret to a long life? "Enjoy every day."

(And, enjoy she did. Sadly, Mrs. Gavigan passed on Thursday, June 8th. She will be missed by family and friends, and those of us at Dallas Township whose lives she touched.)
