4 minute read

Last week, a resident at Lakeside celebrated her 100th birthday with family, friends and staff.

Jane Green commemorated the major milestone with her two nieces, Yvonne and Wendy, they were joined by staff from the home as they indulged.

Jane was born in 1924 and was raised in Cornwall alongside her sister, Florence. She later moved to Wigan after marrying her husband James. 

“She’s the first person in the family that’s reached 100 because we live so far away we felt it was really important to come up and mark that occasion. That’s why we’ve both come, we thought it was special. Especially because she was our mum’s sister, and we miss our mum. They were very close!”

“Oh, it was wonderful, absolutely wonderful. I’m so pleased to see them all because one I haven’t seen for 10 years. I really enjoyed it, every minute of it, and this morning I was exhausted.”

“Marjory, a Night Nurse, brought me this card in, honestly I had to cry because the words were so beautiful. And then I had a card from the King, yes that’s very nice!”
