Happy birthday, Lucy!

Lucy Healey turns 100 today, but the children at Jessie Irving Daycare wanted to get the jump on wishing her a happy birthday yesterday over at Kotitalo.

Lucy Healey turns 100 today, but the children at Jessie Irving Daycare wanted to get the jump on wishing her a happy birthday yesterday over at Kotitalo.

They couldn't be there themselves so they sent Maria Guido and Theresa Palarchio, registered early childhood educators from the centre, with a cake and card for Lucy.

Her friend Mae and Krystal Sonoc, Kotitalo activities aid, joined the ladies from Jessie Irving in singing Happy Birthday to Lucy. 

Lucy was born in a farmhouse in Bellevue.
 
She raised five boys and lived in the Sault area all her life.
 
Her secret to a long life? Be a good person.
 
The kids from Jessie Irving visit Kotitalo (The Ontario Finnish Resthome) every Tuesday and participate in a variety of activities with the residents. 
 
"The residents look forward to their visits," said Sonoc.
 
LOCAL2 will be wishing Lucy a happy birthday on it's birthday Birthday Reel later today.
 
To get a birthday on the Birthday Reel just email [email protected].
