Reston founder Bob Simon turned 100 years old last week. Thursday morning, he got a television shout out from The Today Show’s Willard Scott. Scott has been wishing Centenarians all over the country milestone birthday greetings on the show for years.
“He loves Reston,” Scott said. ‘He founded Reston and I remember that. I remember the day it opened up.”
See the clip on The Today Show website.
