Albertha Hicks, née Burrows, is celebrating her 100th birthday today among close family members who gathered to celebrate this notable milestone.
The new centenarian, better known as Aunty Albertha, is said to be “a proper Englishwoman.”
Hicks, a Guyanese by birth, was born in Parika, East Bank Essequibo, to parents Charlie Burrows, a captain in the American Navy, and mother, Caroline Anderson-Burrows, a homemaker. Hicks later relocated to Georgetown, where she and her siblings spent most of their childhood days.
