  2. I met Laton Chairs a few years after this party. But to know Laton is to know this event was SPECTACULAR! Laton Chairs is in a category by herself with beauty I 've never seen before, talent, grace, and generosity you simply won't find in this selfish world. Chairs is a gift to be celebrated every day--not just on her birthday.
