At 100 years old, Lolly Grello is still experiencing firsts in life. Grello, a longtime Narragansett resident who now resides at the Roberts Nursing Centre in North Kingstown, celebrated her first virtual birthday on May 20.

There was cake, balloons and a glass of a sparkling cider-looking drink which Grello raised as if to toast the occasion. And of course there was family – 44 members in nine states that showed up on Zoom to mark the milestone and sing “Happy Birthday” to her.
