Oldest customer of the agency for household help
Paderborn, April 25, 2024 – Today, the agency for household help would like to introduce a special customer who inspires not only with her impressive age, but above all with her joy of life and memories: Mrs. H., a proud 103 years old. In the year Mrs. H. was born, Albert Einstein won the Nobel Prize in Physics.
The agency for household help team leader in Paderborn, Natascha Flack, reports on a warm visit to Mrs. H., at which her everyday helper Claudia H. was also present. The two have been close friends for two years now. „At 103 years old, she has remained a modern, warm-hearted woman,“ says helper Claudia H. They exchanged ideas over coffee and cake while Mrs. H. talked about her life. Despite her limited hearing, she had a lot to say.
A Century of Memories
Mrs. H. remembered her children and her late husband. She spoke enthusiastically about her work in a dental laboratory, which she always enjoyed. She was particularly proud of having completed a swimming course at the age of over 60, even though she did not receive a „seahorse badge.“
A particular highlight was her love of travel: Mrs. H. told how she once traveled to Gdansk by train all alone to visit her husband. Her furthest holiday destination was Austria, but she admitted that she had never flown, although she would like to experience it one day. When Mrs. H. was born, passenger aviation was in its infancy.
Independent life as a centenarian
Despite her advanced age, Mrs. H. still lives alone in her rented apartment on the first floor, even though she can no longer leave the house. That is why she is grateful for the help from the domestic help agency with shopping, cleaning and cooking. She still feels quite well, is grateful for her health and only suffers from slight dizziness and hearing loss.
The Paderborn agency for household help team leader enthuses: „Ms. H. is a really lovely, sweet lady.“ The agency for household help is grateful to be able to support Ms. H. and looks forward to continuing to visit and look after her regularly.
