Paul McAfee celebrates his 100th birthday on Friday, Valentine's Day. "Being the person he is over all the years I have had the privilege of being his daughter," Retha Evans said. "Almost everyone would agree that his birthday, which is on this day, could not be more appropriate. He is one of the most respectful persons I have ever met, not a bad word about anyone.” McAfee, originally from Birch Tree, retired from Smith Flooring after a 38-year career, and his former employer praised him for his hard work, easygoing nature and dedication during his employment, having only missed one day of work during that time. McAfee has been married to his wife Evelyn for 68 years and the couple now live in West Plains after retiring and selling their farm. They had five children, sons Steve, Fred and Bruce and daughters Retha Evans and Sheila Dunn. "Dad, we would like to tell you on this wonderful day that my brothers, sister, and I love you with all our hearts and we plan on keeping you around for many more years," Evans said. "Happy birthday! What a milestone, Dad, and you have set the bar high for us to follow."
