i would love to help you find the home of your Dreams! Photos courtesy Alicia Strang Fifth grader enjoys special birthday parade On Thursday, April 9, more than 60 people came out to celebrate Kile Keene’s birthday in an usual but heartfelt way — with a birthday parade. Kile is a fifth grader on the autism spectrum at Hickory Creek Elementary school — and he loves birthdays (everyone’s, not just his own). According to his mother, Windy Keene, he had been planning his birthday party and was excited to invite all his friends, but the coronavirus changed his plans. So she decided to throw him a parade instead. She drew up a parade route and forwarded it to his classmates, teachers and friends. Afterwards, Keene said, “Participants were in cars, trucks, wagons, bicycles, even power wheels. It was a beautiful outpouring of love from Kile’s classmates, church friends, teachers, therapists, neighbors, and family friends. Dottie® Lay REALTOR, PA, CNE, CDPE Kile was so excited and he has loved looking back at all the pictures.” 904.466.0749 Each office is independently owned and operated.
