Margaret May Hodgkins, known as Peggy, celebrated her special day, on Monday, with family and friends.
“Peggy is amazing for 103,” said son-in-law Robin Elliott. “She’s brilliant and still does all sorts, including in the garden, with very little help from us.”
He added: “We had a lovely little get-together to make sure she had a lovely day.”
Peggy, who was born in Aston, moved to Walmley when at the age of three and went onto become a teacher, working at the Shrubbery School for 34 years.
Her husband Victor passed away 36 years ago and Peggy, who lives in Little Aston, has a daughter, Lesley and son Tim, who lives in Normandy.
