October 12, 1920 is a very special day for the Kokinakis/Velez family.  It’s the day their Nana, Ms. Betty Kokinakis was born.  Celebrating the occasion at Lee’s Wine Bistro, the Kokinakis/Velez family presented Nana with a very special cake designed and made by granddaughter Allie Velez.  The cake featured a photo of Betty with a letter hand written by Allie.  The letter read:
Betty,
You have led an amazing life. From playing with Marlon Brando as a kid (lucky girl!) to being an innovative fashion designer… a fabulous interior decorator… not to mention a world traveler, your life has been full of adventures. Your fun loving and carefree attitude has made you one of a kind. The majesty and laughter that you bring to life makes you one of the most beautiful women ever created. They say you only get better with age. If that’s true than you are approaching magnificent! We love you Nana. Happy 90th Birthday!
Congratulations to Betty and the entire family for their joyous occasion from all of us at The Magazine of Santa Clarita.
