oldest working lady in Wales die aged 102

What a lovely send off. She looks a real character. Didn't she do well!! :-o))

she was Amblealice....her daughter has been making plans for them to retire for years but she wouldnt hear of it...;-))

~ what a wonderful old lady~she obviously loved her life! maybe it was the fish and chips!

AAaaww she sounded wonderful Sandra & what a Great age :) Its so sad when popular people in your community pass away :( but im sure shes smiling down on all her Friends & Relatives as the Funeral sounded wonderful :)

Amazing story... and well written Sandra..
Thank you :o)

ive put a like because she deserved one, what a nice lady she must have been sandra for all those people to close up and show how much she ment to the town,and such a great age to reach,

thanks.
i'm amazed that she had never been into hospital before.. its awesome to think of the changes that have happened in her life time...she lived through two world wars...she saw the Wright brothers take to the air for the first time...and was aready in her 40s when Elisabeth took to the throne....

wow thats amazing sandra, hard to believe one person could live through all that change,,

Bless her and the daughter, wonderful to think she was active to the end of her life, she will be greatly missed.........

they just showed her funeral on the Welsh news... i was reminded that on her 100th birthday the round table 'kidnapped' her on horseback and held her hostage to raise funds for the air ambulence...101 was spent touring around in a lomosine....102 was spent on the back of a motor trike leathers and all....what a lady..;-))

Brilliant.What a wonderful lady,and such a great life she had.A biker at 102 .wow !..
How nice,she was so well loved in her community.and lovely memories for her Family.Glad you told us about her,Sandra...

They dont come like that anymore Sandra!

im sure theres a few like her around here. i meet a lot of fit oldies still gardening when im out at the plant sales...

An amazing lady Sandra.What must her young daughter of 70 be thinking ? Another 30 odd years to work yet ! Fantastic achievement ! Thanks for sharing this..so heartwarming...

She was obviously well known and well respected. I saw them saying about her on the news.

Thanks for a lovely blog but a sad one aswell, she was an amazing woman, shore i heard something about her a while ago on the news, know it was a 102 yr lady and she was in her own chip shop.

she's been on the news every birthday for years...she was a very well respected and lovely kind lady......

It as to be the same one ...

A lovely story.

What a wonderful way to live and die, God be with her, thanks for sharing this story.

i think she was a very lovely lucky lady......it was nice to have met her and tasted her cooking...

I agree Sandra, so lucky to have had her health right up to the end.

We can learn so much from people like that who live life to the full, whatever their age

My mother is nearly 103, but has been in a nursing home bed for two years - not much of a life, I'm afraid.

my sympathies to your mum..to get over the one hundred is amazing. hope she is comfortable. Mrs Brown was so very lucky....
