The Hanging Rock resident is known to always look on the bright side of life. Ms Penman's son, Phillip, said tenacity and strong genes had blessed her with good health.
An early birthday celebration took place at the weekend where Ms Penman was showered in gifts and special letters. Ms Penman was most pleased with her birthday wishes from the Queen.
