Let's make this birthday one to remember.

61 years old (Born on August 26, 1963)

Happy Birthday to the fabulous Kaye Lani Rafko! From dazzling us all as Miss America 1988, proudly representing Michigan, you've gracefully transitioned from runway glamor to hospital scrubs. Who knew that beneath that sparkling crown was a superhero nurse ready to save lives and brighten days?

Your journey from beauty queen to healthcare hero is truly inspiring—proving you can rock both high heels and comfy nursing shoes with equal flair. May your birthday be filled with laughter, joy, and perhaps fewer pageant waves but plenty of cake slices!

Here's wishing you another year of success in every role life brings your way!
