Mamie T. Watkins celebrated her 100th birthday in May, at a party at her home at Windsor in Palm Coast. Seventy people came to the party. The Windsor staff helped with the buffet, champagne, and birthday cake. The party included a DJ, and a cast member from the stage show, “Motown & Mo.” Watkins enjoyed dancing the calypso with her guests.
Watkins was born on April 28, 1916, in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. Her family moved to New York City when she was 5 years old. She worked as a hospital records supervisor, and lived in the city for 90 years, before moving to Palm Coast, 10 years ago, to be closer to her daughter, Sandra Nurse.
