A Lafayette couple has been selected as the winners in a contest that will allow four generations of their family to join for a 90th birthday celebration this summer.
Bob and Joan Wight, residents at Atria Park of Lafayette, were the top vote-getters in the international Mother's Day "Gifts of Time" contest held by the Atria Senior Living corporate office.
Contest participants shared ideas for ways they would ideally choose to spend time with their mother. Atria received dozens of submissions from families across the U.S. and Canada.
Submissions were then narrowed to a field of five, posted on Facebook and put to a public vote. Thousands of votes poured in, with the Wight family edging out their competition by a narrow margin. The couple will use their winnings to help create a celebration for their 60 children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren together for their 90th birthday celebration in August.
"The Wights are such a lovely and deserving couple, and we are thrilled that they will be able to celebrate their 90th birthdays with family members from across the country," said Jenifer Noble, Engage Life director at Atria Park of Lafayette. "I could not be prouder to be a part of making this family's dream come to reality."
