Apple Valley resident Florence Mildred Hoffman-Carlson said she often reminisces about the “good old days,” when 10 cents got her into a double feature at her local movie theater and ice trucks made home deliveries.
Carlson, who lives at Solstice Senior Living, turned 100 on April 27 and had a pre-birthday celebration the Sunday prior at her home with family, friends and the Solstice staff.
“Everyone had a great time, with food and cake served outside under a tent to keep everyone safe,” said Angele Laib, the director of sales and marketing for Solstice.
Laib said the festivities for Carlson may have been outside, but the decorations, meal and service made it an elegant affair.
