90 A milestone birthday for Selma Price By Marcia Kalb and Gloria Besbris Long-time congregant Selma Price was feted more than once last month in celebration of her 90th birthday. Selma turned 90 on May 23. Gloria Besbris and Sandy Rose organized a birthday luncheon in her honor on May 13 at Friendship Village. Selma’s four children — Cheryl, Jeffrey, Andrew and Larry — and their spouses, children and grandchildren celebrated with Selma on her special day. Selma had the opportunity to meet her new great- grandchildren when the family convened in Kalamazoo. Selma and Zachary Price arrived in Kalamazoo from New Jersey more than 40 years ago proving that what the East Coast lost the Midwest gained. Zachary worked at Goodwill Industries and Selma was instrumental in turning Gilmore’s Second Floor Sportswear Department into the place to go for fashionable clothing. Selma cared for Zachary during an extended illness until his death and felt supported by her many friends and members of the Congregation of Moses. These friends were thrilled when she developed her friendship with our congregant Al Katz. Selma and Al enjoyed several years of lovely companionship with one another. When Selma moved from her home on Bronson Boulevard she was welcomed to the warm community at Friendship Village where she participates in many activities. Besides being a bridge player, she enjoys her weekly mah jong games and continues to be a stylish dresser. Rabbi Spivak, the Board, Trustees and the congregation wish Selma mazel tov and many more happy, healthy birthdays! PAGE 12
HAPPY 90TH BIRTHDAY, SELMA PRICE! by Werner Sichel Ninety years ago a baby girl was born, and was she ever a cutie, She didn't change all that much, and during her entire life she's been a beauty. A beauty to look at but also a wonderful person to know, A sparkling personality and always perfectly attired from head to toe. The men found her attractive and the women were a bit jealous, But Selma thought "the heck with the women, I have the fellows." She had many good matches to choose among, and finally selected Zachary Price, He was a good-looking guy and, above all, very nice. They enjoyed life together and had four wonderful kids who they adored, They did lots of fun things and never were bored. Many years later Zachary became ill and after some time passed away, So Selma had to find a new man with whom to play. Al Katz and Selma made a lovely couple and had some very good years, Filled with many nice trips, much laughter, and, of course, some tears. In her later years she was again alone, She made a good decision to sell her home. She found a new home at Friendship Village where she lives very well, And has made a good life for herself, which is easy to tell. Selma's positive attitude always makes her a winner, She enjoys her friends and all the amenities at Friendship Village, especially dinner. There's a TV program that always reminds me of Selma, whether day or night, It tells all of us what we already know: "The Price is Right." Happy 90th birthday, Selma, you're still going strong, And remember what I'm telling you, you can never be wrong. You have the magic to always follow the bright light, Because as we have already determined, "The Price is Right." PAGE 13
