Jim Darby's 85th Birthday Page

Jim and his wife Loretta prepare to deal with the cake.

Jim and his family at the 85th birthday dinner. Left to right: Sister Polly MacLea, Daughter Ida Lee Wootten, grandson Jim Darby Wootten, nephew Jim Darby MacLea, niece-in-law Janet MacLea, Jim Darby himself, Wife Loretta Darby, grandson Nate Wootten.

Jim, his sister Polly, and his daughter Ida Lee, all have their birthdays the week of 13-20 July, so they share a massive cake at Jim's house.

Alas, Polly is no longer with us. Of the six first cousins, only Jim is left as Cousin Mary died in the Spring of 2007 at 104.5 years of age.
