July 15, 1919, was a Tuesday. Those born during this time are known as the Greatest Generation as they grew up during the great depression and then some went on to fight in World War II. Nothing really noteworthy of national news happened on this date. Except, maybe something did. On this date, there was born a woman by the name of Mary Burleson, as she would become. No one would guess that she would celebrate her 101st birthday. In the midst of a pandemic, her family gathered outside of Focused Care of Linden with signs wishing her the happiest of birthdays.
