She lives in New Whittington, Chesterfield, with her dog Tilly, who she often brings into the home to meet the residents.
Kathleen added: “Pat really is an Aunty to all the staff here at Holmewood, particularly the younger staff who need a little bit more guidance and support. She takes them under her wing of expertise.
“She often treats the residents and staff from her own pocket and never misses any birthday or special occasion for anyone, so we wanted to do something for her.”
