Iris is one my favorite women in NYC. Her birthday was Monday so this post is a little late, but that’s ok…

We met 6 years ago and she and her husband Carl have become my surrogate parents in New York. I love them both. I’m so amazed by their joy of life and their warmth that they so freely show to each other. They’ve been married for 60+ years and are as affectionate now as if they just met, something I strive towards… Happy Belated Birthday, Iris!
