If a popularity contest were held in Linwood, there is a good chance the winner would be Helen Graham Turner, who celebrated her 111th birthday over the weekend.
Well-wishers attended a birthday party in her honor at Brandywine Living at Brandall Estates, which Turner has called home since 2011. They waited in line to give the birthday girl best wishes in person, get a picture taken with her or collect one of her famous hugs.
Never shy, Turner made a grand entrance to her party with bagpipes by Jeff MacNeil, of Egg Harbor Township, who said he has been a fan of Turner pretty much his entire life.
