It’s 105 for Millie

19 Apr 2021 Share:


The quite remarkable Millicent (Millie) McComb celebrated her 105th birthday last month with a special family lunch enjoyed at Henley Hotel.  The Cambridge Resthaven resident celebrated her March 19 birthday a day later with her son and daughter-in-law, Bruce and Janet McComb, five grandchildren and nine of her 10 great-grandchildren, a sprinkling of nieces and nephews and some of their children. Delighted and ‘amazed’ at the family turnout, Millie is now looking forward to her 106th. Pictured with her is her son Bruce McComb.
