GEORGETOWN TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WOOD) — At Sunset Manor and Villages in Jenison on Wednesday, 18 people celebrated a century of living.
Hazel Coy was among them. She will turn 100 years old in December.
Coy grew up in Zeeland where she was the first to hold a special title.
“Zeeland had a Chick Queen, they called it. A Chick Queen. See that was a chick town. They were known for their chicks and I was their first Chick Queen they had,” she said.
Coy loves to tell tales of playing outside and coming home only when the sun went down. Among her happy childhood memories is a game called “Eenie, Eenie, Over.” It involves getting a ball over the roof of a house to a waiting group of kids.
