Jennie L. Kern, mother of Joann K. Long of Bloomfield, turns 100 on May 17.
Long s mom, who lives in her house in Penfield, has weathered a difficult pandemic year, and during it learned how to Skype with her out-of-state children and family, Long said.
After much practice and lots of patience she’s using her iPad to even do online church, Long added. Mom always has a cheerful smile, and our family is so blessed, she said.
Special days for special mom
