Jean has been involved with the KFA since the 1960s and still attends her weekly keep fit class.
She has performed in many keep fit displays at branch, regional and national level performing at the Royal Albert Hall in the Yorkshire team on numerous occasions over the years.
Sue added: “We are all so proud of Jean and her secret to reaching the grand old age – Keeping Fit and the occasional glass of Merlot or Sherry!”
