Residents and staff at Ferrars Hall Care Home in Huntingdon celebrated the 100th birthday of beloved resident Emily Ramsey on 16th May. Emily enjoyed a wonderful party complete with fabulous cake created by Chef Manager Bill and team, while her family gathered in the garden to wish her a happy birthday and take part in the celebrations. Emily was very proud to receive her birthday card from Her Majesty, The Queen and puts her long life down to “A big family and hard work”.
“The team at Ferrars Hall would like to wish Emily a very happy birthday.” said Home Manager Susan Dunnell. “Emily is a great character and had a wonderful day celebrating her milestone birthday with us.”
Emily’s daughter Olwyn commented “Happy 100th birthday Mum, I can clearly see how much you are loved and cared for. Thank you Ferrars Hall for all your care and hard work to make mums day the very best”.
