Massachusetts’ oldest resident Hazel Plummer celebrated her 113th birthday last week.
Plummer, a resident of the Life Care Center of Nashoba Valley in Littleton, Mass. was born on June 19, 1908.
Notching 113 years means Plummer has lived through quite a few historic events, including two global pandemics-- the COVID-19 Pandemic last year and the Spanish Flu Pandemic in 1918.
