Ms Maureen Finn celebrated becoming a centenarian with family and friends and a former Taoiseach at a party to celebrate her 100th birthday at Riada House in Tullamore recently.
Among those in attendance on the day was former Taoiseach Brian Cowen, who presented Maureen with a framed letter from President Catherine Connolly who congratulated her on the milestone age.
Maureen Finn was born on August 26, 1926, in Annaghmore, Kinnitty.
She was the eldest of three children and after living for a time in Galway, lived for 50 years in Tullamore.
Photographer Ger Rogers captured the wonderful occasion.
