Pat said she was 'completely overwhelmed' at the party thrown in her honour
Pat Charleston, 97, moved into Cedar Court fold 22 years ago and was one of the first residents to call the Whiteabbey fold their home.
She said: "My mum used to live in Merville and we were out for a drive, we were going past here and she said, 'This is where I'm going to live.' They were still building the place, but she'd put her name down on the list and never told the family. Describing her mum as a "character", Susie said she will miss the residents here the most now that she's moved on.
"It's only around the corner too so she can still call around here to see everyone. There's a hair salon in here too and she calls down every week to get her hair done and see everybody." "When I came here it was a breath of fresh air for me, I started feeling like I was living. I just love it. I feel very protective over the other residents here as well."
