Happy 100th birthday to Daphne!
17 Sep 2025
Alexandra 14 Probus Club recently celebrated the 100th birthday of its member Daphne.
Daphne joined the Club in 2009 and was an active member until she became partially blind.
Born in Mataura, Daphne married Fred in 1951 and moved to the family farm in the Waikerikeri Valley. During this time, she was involved in the Clyde community through her involvement in the church, school committees, and sport.
Daphne moved to Alexandra in 1998 and has since continued to be involved in church, as well as new activities including Scottish country dancing and volunteering at Ranui Hospital for 10 years.
She has been keeping active through her daily walks, reading the newspaper, completing crosswords, and enjoying people who come to visit her.
On behalf of the Probus South Pacific team, we wish Daphne a very happy 100th birthday!
