Thelma Gibbon from Sally Martin Park celebrated her 92nd birthday on 1 February.
Her family and the personnel left no stone unturned to make her birthday a day to remember. She was treated like a princess – with crown and sash – and all the residents enjoyed birthday cake and tea. Thelma has been a resident of Sally Martin Park since the facility opened its doors in Parys.
