A 100th birthday celebration
KENNEBUNK — As Janet Hawkes walked into the Senior Center at Lower Village, a wave of excitement came from friends, neighbors and community members who were gathered to celebrate Hawkes' 100th birthday.
Making her way through the crowd, saying hello to friends and loved ones, Hawkes wore a happy smile on her face.
Not surprisingly, after seeing the love and camaraderie within the function hall, Hawkes said the best moments of her 100 years of life have revolved around friendship.
"Most memorable is all the wonderful friends I've made," Hawkes said as she looked out around the room of happy, smiling faces.
However, Hawkes joked that those responsible for hosting the birthday party were in trouble later for the attention she was getting.
"It was just beautiful, it was a real surprise," she said of the celebration.
Susan Pettit, director of the Senior Center, awarded Hawkes with a lifetime membership and said those who drive Hawkes through the center's transportation program have all adored her.
