“My dad, Ted Will, is celebrating his 90th birthday on Halloween in Bemidji! Growing up, my five siblings and I would get to have dad's favorite — spice cake with caramel frosting, decorated with candy corn — before we headed out trick-or-treating with an extra sugar-loaded spring in our steps. Happy Birthday dad!”

~ Carolyn Will, St. Paul

“Honoring our dad, Andy Driscoll, on what would have been his 85th birthday. He always made Halloween special for his kids and grandkids, even though it was his birthday! Miss ya', dad!”

~ Amy Driscoll, Plymouth

“It’s Zelda the Bernedoodle’s 5th birthday today! In lieu of a party, she’s sending a shout-out to her favorite human friends. You know who you are.”

“Three of us in our neighborhood finally live trapped the stray male cat who has been a primary contributor to the kitten population. He is going in for a vet appointment and a permanent fix to his contribution to the kitten issue. He will be back in the neighborhood within days and cared for by our community of cat lovers.”

~ Jan, Minneapolis
