[quote=doodlebug]Is there a particular reason you don't want to make a speech? Was she abusive or are you not close? Are you very introverted and don't like the spotlight? 80 is a big year and I don't think it's unreasonable for someone to give a short speech to say thanks for all the years of love and memories but if you're really against it, then go back to the sibling who assigned this task to you and explain why you don't want to do it. If you do the speech, you're certainly within your rights to open the floor to anyone who wants to share a memory. When my grandmother turned 90, my mom had all the family write a story/memory and then she compiled them into a book for my grandma. It was a big hit (as was the party since it was a surprise and people flew in from several states away.) [/quote]
