is quite a family affair
Special 10 The Chronicle '
Wilhelmina Scott Murphy cele
brated her first 70 years among fam
ily and friends on Aug. 7.
She was born on Aug. 6, 1929.
The birthday gathering was held
at Miller Park
Recreation
Center. More
than 200 peo
ple attended.
Murphy
received 70
roses from
her children
and grand
children.
some came Murphy
from New
York. Atlanta. Philadelphia and
. South Carolina.
A native of Lenoir, Murphy has
six children and three stepchildren.
Her six children are: Thomas Scott
Jr. (Vernetta), Diane Scott-Jones
(John), Denise Scott-Johnson
(Thomas), Hazel Scott, Robert
'Tony" Scott (Alicia) and Timothy
Scott. The stepchildren are Cheryl
Murphy Mungro (Russell), Monica
Murphy FergMson and Patrick Mur
phy.
"This was an opportunity for
family and good friends to get
together." Murphy said. "I saw rela
tives and friends I have not seen in
years."
Murphy expressed her idea
about the importance of the occa
sion.
"As fartiilies grow, they tend to
get spread out and pretty soon rela
tives and friends are scattered far
and wide. Cousins grow up not
knowing each other, and brothers,
sisters, moms and dads are often
separated by county and state lines.
"It is important that we all make
an effort to come together and redis
cover what it is that makes our fam
ily and the friendships so special."
