GEORGE NEWS - Grace Seale, a resident at Bergville Retirement Village, celebrated her 100th birthday on 25 November. Surrounded by family and friends, Mrs Seale also received a beautiful bouquet from George Executive Mayor Charles Standers and was glowing with joy being surrounded by loved ones.

She is the oldest member of the Loerie Park Seventh Day Adventist Church and the Vrouelandbouvereniging held a special function for her at Bergville.

Mrs Seale amazes people with her sharp memory and lively nature. Mrs Seale’s only complaint is that she is a little deaf, but her hearing aid fixes that!
