Liza Minnelli on Judy Garland's 90th birthday: 'We celebrate the privilege of having had Mama touch all of our lives'

Today would have been Judy Garland's 90th birthday. Her eldest daughter, Liza Minnelli, issued the following statement:

“Today is a day for celebration. We celebrate the privilege of having had Mama touch all of our lives.

She left us with so many feelings we never would have discovered about our self until she exquisitely translated them to us with her voice.

She is to be missed deeply, yes…But, what if we never had her?

That’s what we celebrate today.

Mama gave each and every one of us the gift of hope, laughter, and love.”

Judy Garland was a hard working entertainer through and through from her childhood until her death. She was also a fine person and mother with flaws that we all have. Her children could see that in their personal existance and loved her. That is what Ms Minnelli speaks of.
