Witty, chatty Verene toasts 100th

At Greenpoint Crescent in St Philip, Verene Auguste celebrated her 100th birthday yesterday, receiving well wishes from family, friends, and a special visitor – President The Most Honourable Jeffrey Bostic.

Born and raised in the Oistins, Christ Church community, Auguste’s life story is one of resilience, dedication and unwavering love.

She attended Christ Church Girls’ School on Water Street before embarking on a distinguished career at the Barbados Hilton, where she joined as one of the hotel’s first employees when it opened.
