Ms. Nelson is in isolation right now. But, that didn’t stop her family from putting together a birthday concert outside of her window.
“Normally, she’s not really fond of big birthday bashes and my brother had asked her, ‘Are you excited about turning 100,’ and she said no very emphatically,” Sheila Crouch, Nelson’s daughter, said.
Happy birthday, Ms. Nelson!
