EDNA DENNY, also known as `Gran Denny’, ‘Miss Edna’ and `Ms. Denny’ is today (Wednesday) celebrating her 100th birth anniversary.
Born on March 21, 1918 ‘Gran Denny’ is the only-surviving sibling for her parents. In fact, her mother, Louisa Greene, died one day short of the same milestone approximately 20 years ago.
A mother of two, to the late Patrick and Wallace Denny, and foster mother of Roy Spooner, Miss Denny as she is more popularly called in the family, has eight grandchildren, 11 great-grands, and two great, great-grandchildren.
Confined to a wheelchair for close to a year after an accident, she is still very much joyous and shows no signs of slowing down further. She enjoys singing and praying, and reminiscing on her earlier years as a well-known seamstress.
