Mrs Pearl Cullen of Cootamundra has been a ‘busy’ lady with parties taking place this month to mark her 80th birthday!

One celebration was held during a visit to family (the Livingstones formerly of Cootamundra) in warm Townsville and then another dinner party this past weekend at the Globe Hotel Restaurant which was attended by family and friends from Coota, Wagga and Sydney.

Pearl will continue to celebrate her birthday with a trip to Tasmania which was a gift from her family.

CONGRATULATIONS to a wonderful mother of four, grandmother of 11 and great grandmother of five.
