Puslinch woman celebrates her 100th birthday

Evelyn Fixter  was born on May 24, 1910 and was raised in Hagersville.

She married Scott Fixter in 1930 and lived on the Fixter family farm on Concession 1 of Puslinch.

While living in Puslinch, she was an active member of Crieff Church and the Red Cross. She has also enjoyed many hours of knitting and crocheting as well as quilting.

Her family consists of 12 grandchildren and many great grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren.
