Mrs Eve King’s 100th Birthday at Tannery Court
It was a great pleasure to plan a 100th Birthday Party for Eve. It was an event which she had been looking forward to for the last couple of years. Eve was able to celebrate with family and friends including her great great granddaughter (named after Eve) not to mention the Mayor of Abergele, Alun Hunter and his consort. Eve also enjoyed music and songs from yesteryear by the Vale Singers and a cake was made and decorated by her granddaughter.
Eve’s story
Eve was born in 1923 and was the youngest of 7 children.
At the age of 18 she joined the Royal Army Pay Corps and in 1944 her unit sailed from Southampton to Belgium. She was a Lance Corporal and has very fond memories of her time spent before finally being demobbed from Hamburg.
Eve married in 1949 and raised 3 children in Timperley, near Altrincham. Eve then spent 10 years in Cornwall before moving to Kinmel Bay to be nearer to family. In 2013 Eve made the perfect move to Tannery Court, where she made new friends and continued her cross stitch club which is still running today.
A Royal birthday highlight!
One of the highlights of Eve’s birthday was receiving a birthday card from the new King and Queen Consort and the card was proudly displayed for all to see.
