I am well over 40, turning 75 on Oct. 31 st . Retired and involved in music and love it. I enjoy and embrace every trip around the sun.
We would like to thank you for supporting Mary Parkes in this year's competition. Your support helps us contribute to the National Breast Cancer Foundation who provides early detection, education, and support services to those affected by breast cancer.
The best is being able to do pretty much everything I want. As each year comes and goes I try to embrace every day by living it and loving it. At this point in my life I volunteer throughout my community. My passion is music. A maestro extraordinaire taught me that in music we are one and the music never ends. So at this point when I see the sun rise and set I have had the best day of my life.
How do you stay fabulous?I absolutely love retail therapy. I have always loved fashion, I feel good when I look good. I believe we are all given the platform and then it is up to us to embellish it. Since Covid I opted to go natural with my hair. I tell everyone who asks about my colour, it is OA75 which is Old Age 75. I have my share of wrinkles , do not believe altering these. I have earned every line by living each day . Why would I want to erase these memories. If you feel positive about yourself you look good.
What would you do with the $40,000?Tough question. I would share with my family and also take a trip to Europe to retrace my ancestry. I would also donate to the various organizations in my community that help those less fortunate. I might even tuck some away for a rainy day.
