Family gather at Edinburgh care home to celebrate birthday of 100-year-old Tain woman
AN Easter Ross woman has celebrated her 100th birthday, surrounded by family.
Beatrice Mackay, lately of Moss Road, Tain, celebrated the milestone on October 20.
She lived in Tain all her life until recently moving into Murrayside Care Home in Edinburgh to be nearer to her family, many of whom attended her party.
Her family said she was “overwhelmed by all the cards, flowers and gifts, which were generously given and gratefully received”. They added: “Whilst she cannot thank everyone individually, she has asked that as many people as possible are contacted through the pages of the local press.
“She is settling well into her new surroundings and sends her heartfelt thanks to all of her many friends who have helped and supported her before and since her move away from Tain.”
