Happy birthday Norah! 🎉
19 August 2022After living through two world wars, two global pandemics and 20 Prime Ministers, Norah Shaw, of Lincoln had never seen a butler in the buff before.
Eddy, who works for the Butlers in the Buff agency, provided Norah with sandwiches, scones and fizz on Saturday August 6, as a 106th birthday present from her daughter Gill Shaw, 67, a retired parish clerk and solicitor, after she joked to care home staff that she wanted a “hunky man” on her big day.
Gill said: “She’s a walking and talking history book. She has seen and been through everything. Cars can drive themselves now and no one had cars when she was born. So much has changed in her life and she has taken it all in her stride.” “She loved knitting. She just loved being around people. And even today, she’s a bit fun and flirty. She’s a little bit cheeky, she’s got a twinkle in her eye and she’s always game for a laugh. ”
“She’s been so supportive of me during my life and I think this is the least I can do for her. Our lives are very intertwined and I couldn’t live without her.” Gill said: “She is amazing and unique. She only uses soap and water but her skin has remained incredible – even at 106. My mum had never been in hospital until she was 95 when she had bowel cancer, and the only reason they said they would operate was because she walked herself to hospital.”
