A Sunday Birthday

My mother, Elizabeth Anna Weatherford, was born 90 years ago today in Hillsboro, Illinois.  Last year on this date I presented the newspaper announcement of her birth.  That does not seem like a year ago.  Tempus is definitely fugiting.

November 20, 1921, was a Sunday.  She also died on a Sunday (August 15, 1971).  Last month when I was writing about my father's birthday, I checked to see what day of the week October 13 was in 1912, and it was a Sunday too, and he also died on a Sunday (January 22, 1978).

How freaky is it that both my parents were born and died on Sunday?

If this runs in the family, I should be extremely careful on Fridays.
