What Does "Slancha" Mean?

On July 25, 1995 Mary and I celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary. Mary had always wanted a sports car so her anniversary surprise was a Honda del Sol. Mary was extremely proud of her Irish ancestry and requested a vanity plate with a Gaelic toast, "Slainte" meaning "to your health" or "to good health." "SLAINTE" was not available so Mary used the phonetic spelling, "Slancha."

Our youngest daughter, Lindsay, now uses her mother's distinctive Gaelic plate.
