By WKTV News

NEW YORK MILLS, N.Y. (WKTV) - A New York Mills woman is celebrating 99 years today at the Country Club Court. Helen Gargash was surprised by her family, friends and neighbors with a birthday party.

She says she has lots of memories. She did vote this year, by absentee ballot, but we want to know about the very first presidential election she voted in, "I think Roosevelt...now I can't tell you, I didn't keep a record," she said.

Helen says that solitaire is her specialty and not on the computer but with real playing cards.
