Gerald’s 104th birthday became a joyous online celebration after his son, Kevin Mills, asked Twitter for birthday wishes. The tweet received an overwhelming response, with over 423,000 likes. People from various walks of life joined in, sharing heartfelt messages and pictures. A user, Adam Hill, expressed his hope for his premature-born daughter to live as long, while “Star Wars” legend Mark Hamill and actor Stephen Fry sent warm wishes. The campaign extended beyond Twitter, reaching radio stations like 94.5 KHI in Ocean City, MD. Some shared images of their elderly relatives, turning the simple tweet into a widespread celebration. As one user beautifully put it, “Hats off and many, many happy returns to these very special centenarians and all the others on here!”
