daily-dose-of-uplift-2

A 97-year-old former cheerleader in central Michigan got to relive her glory days.  Her name is Ilagene Doehring.  She helped form Merrill High School’s first cheer team 80 years ago.  The school’s current cheerleaders surprised her at her retirement home and brought her a uniform to put on.  They planned to do a few simple cheers with her, but then she asked them to lift her up so she could “fly” again.  Thankfully, no one broke a hip.
