Today, Mrs. Maria Francisca (Ria) van Ham-Schoenmaker from Voorburg (near The Hague) celebrated her 109th birthday.
She's very fit for her age; every Saturday she visits the local market (with her 69 year old son).

@hendrik Happy belated 109th birthday to your mother!! 😊
Interested in supercentenarians since 27 July 2018.
First supercentenarian I learned about: Kane Tanaka (1903-2022)
Welcome to the forum Hendrik and congratulations to your mum on her remarkable achievement.
I am very proud and grateful to have this person in my life, she is my mother !
Geachte meneer Van Ham, van harte welkom op dit forum! Wat moet het fantastisch zijn om nog een moeder van 109 jaar oud te hebben - en dan in zulke goede gezondheid! Ik wens uw moeder en u nog vele mooie momenten samen toe!
Overduidelijk misschien.
Hopefully you'll stay and be a part of this Forum Hendrik, and subject to us always respecting her privacy, possibly you'll be able to let us know how she is getting on.
