Congratulations to Mr. Old but they left out the most important part "he is a funny, interesting and encouraging member of the congregation and always fun to chat with after chruch!" So don't be intimidated by the accolades, go tell him congratulations in person and make a new friend.
Sylvia got there first! Hope she has extra copies of his books in the Church Library!
Congratulations to the Old family as well...
