William "Bill" Lapschies is resilient! He has lived through the Spanish Flu, the Depression, fought in WWII and now has completely defeated and recovered from the Coronavirus pandemic - just in time for his 104th birthday!
Even though he couldn't take visitors at his Veteran's Home in Oregon, his family did give him another unique experience; a social distancing birthday party, where they held up signs, balloons and more from over six feet away outside of the home.
