Elvie Lowery, standing, sings ``Happy Birthday'' to her father,

Henry Lowery, who turned 101 years old Tuesday. All the members of

the Senior Center at Young Terrace wished him well with a cake and a

song. Henry Lowery, right, enjoys the celebration. Lowery, the

father of six children, has 18 grandchildren and a host of

great-grandchildren. He is a member of Queen Street Baptist Church

and attends every Sunday.
