Perkins Avenue Bodacious Birthdays Charlie Lindecamp, Retired Berlin- Milan School Superintendent, turned 103 in March 2022. His granddaughter, Heather Lindecamp, threw him a birthday bash. Heather shared a distinctive quality about Charlie. She said, “He told me this…. ‘Never take sole credit for accomplishments. When recognized, never say I. Say we. However, if something does not go well, always take sole credit and say I made a mistake.’ Joyce Bretz turned 92 in April 2022. Joyce lives with her daughter and son-in-law Pam and Tim Hall. To celebrate, Pam made her Mom a Black Forest birthday cake. I asked Pam about her Mom’s distinctive qualities. Pam said, “My Mom has always practiced honesty and she raised us to do the same.” Left: Charlie Lindecamp, 103; Center: Heather, granddaughter; R: Braley Heckleman, friend.
