Mrs. Rollinson celebrated her 102nd birthday an Sunday, November 18. "I was always crazy for ice- craun, any flavor," she com- mented. ''1 don't care for it so much now, but I like a cootie once in a while." Looking more like a 75 -year• old, than someone who has surpassed the centurian mart, Mrs. Rollinson, said her secret to life was just living. "I just lived. 1 don't feel old, but it seems to be a long tune," she said in reference to her birthday. "There have been quite a few changes, a lot of changing back and forth." Born and raised on a farm near Auburn, Mrs. Rollinson (nee Lawlor) had three brothers and four sisters. During her youth she worked as an Evaporator. At the age of 18, she met Alfred Rollinson during a visit to the harness shop, and it was "love at fust sight". The couple married and moved into the village. Alfred took on the job of Post Master, and his wife helped him. Although she admits her eyesight and memory are failing, and she is not as mobile as she once was, Mrs. Rollinson, is as active as any person half her age. She likes to hook rugs, and has done as many as 50 in past years. She also likes -to play crt*inole, and dominoes, and has proved to be an ace at both these games since arriving at the Manor. "I'm pot very fond of cards, and I'm not in love with bowling," she says, but staff at the Seaforth Manor say she fairly beams when she's asked to participate. In earlier years Mrs. Rollinson was quite an accomplished or- ganist, often playing in school concerts and in church. She was also quite active in the United Church Women, although she was brought up in the Methodist Church. Other things Mrs. Rollinson did were quilting, sewing, and crocheting. She also used to skate, and loved to take walks with her husband. It was during those walks that Mrs. Rollinson would ask her husband, "Do you love 102 YEARS YOUNG - Aeaforth Manor resident Mary Rollinson celebrated her 102nd birthday on Sunday, November 18. She credits "just living" and "ice-cream" for her long life. Robinet photo. me?" only to hear him reply, "I just adore you." "I got a good man," she says in retrospect. "He was kind and good." Mrs. Rollinson thinks the television was a "good inven- tion" and says her favorite program is, "The Price is Right". As far as she knows she's the only one in her family to live to such a great age. Neither her mother nor father were very old when they died. Mrs. Rollinson has two children, a son Murray who resides in the Seaforth Manor Retirement Home, and a daughter Isabelle who lives in Toronto. K 1 DSS ENTER THE.
