It's Nifty To Be Fifty




By RON MALY

This early-autumn Sunday was a day of celebrating for our youngest son Kevin and his family. It's Kevin's 50th birthday, and his wife and kids think it's pretty nifty for him to be fifty. So does Kevin. The birthday fun has been going on for a while, and it may last well into the night.  Kevin, his wife Donna and kids Nathan, a sophomore at the University of Iowa, and Megan, a senior at Valley High School in West Des Moines, joined a gang of us for brunch at Wellman's on Ingersoll.
