Kitty’s son Bob lives locally and joined in with his mum’s birthday celebrations.
Karen Russell, manager of Forest View, said: “Despite only being five-foot tall, Kitty is a big personality and great friend to residents and staff alike. We’re delighted to have celebrated her 100th birthday with her loved ones.”
Mrs Norris is also partial to a song and dance as she often recalls her favorite song, ‘Bobby’s girl’, which reminds her of her son who she dedicated so much of her life to looking after.
