Katie Tomczak turned 99 years young July 5, 2018. This year she was honored by being selected as the Grand Marshal of the 4th of July Parade in her home town of Ludington Michigan. The parade is something Katie looks forward to every year. She has lived in Ludington Michigan her whole life. Her positive influence and always smiling face is an inspiration to everyone that meets her. Grandma Katie, as she is referred to in Ludington, is a true inspiration and I am proud to call her my Grandma.
