Ivy Clark chalks it up to good genes.

The resident of Trillium Court Seniors' Community in Kincardine celebrated her 103rd birthday Thursday and has received many flowers and cards from friends and family.

"I'm lucky I have such good health," she says. "My parents were good about their health. My mother lived to be 94 and my father was 87."

Born in England on Jan. 5, 1909, she came to Canada with her parents when she was a year old. She lived in Toronto and in many other areas all over the world.

She moved to Kincardine several years ago and lived at Forbes Lambton Court before moving to Trillium Court about a two-and-a-half years ago.

"I have seen so much and enjoyed so many things in this life," she says, with a smile.

She enjoys reading and is pleased to be so healthy and happy. "I have had a wonderful life."

Married twice, she has one son, Ted Penny, of Kincardine.
