Eva Dass (nee Noah), right, celebrated her 99th birthday at St Andrews Hall in Steenberg with family and friends. Her grandchildren and great grandchildren each shared something special about Ms Dass at the party. Granddaughter Stacey-Lee Stevens said: “My Ma firmly believes that honouring your mother and father will lengthen your days on earth. She continues to say her daily prayers as it is only through the grace of God which she gets her strength for each new day.”
