Loreta Curmi of Nadur celebrated her 102nd birthday on June 11. She is the seventh of nine siblings. Her upbringing was very simple and typical of a family toiling fields. Curmi is the oldest ever member of the MUSEUM society. Her Christian beliefs are deeply ingrained in her and she is a big devotee of the Virgin Mary. Family members, MUSEUM society members, Nadur parish priest Jimmy Xerri and members of the clergy paid her a courtesy visit. A party was held to mark the occasion.
