Esther Lyons welcomed a visit from some of her great-great-grandchildren.

Esther Lyons blows out the candles on a cake held by Harmony Place Assisted Living activities director Shamus Condron.

Family members of Esther Lyons visited Harmony Place Assisted Living on Monday to celebrate her 105th birthday.

Esther sat on a chair on the porch of Harmony Place, 8420 Roosevelt Blvd., and her daughter and other loved ones wished her a happy birthday from a safe distance.

The crowd sang Happy Birthday, and Esther received cards, flowers, candy, balloons, old framed pictures and a citation from state Rep. Ed Neilson. Her guests had cake and cupcakes, with the young ones also getting party bags.

Esther, a Holmesburg native, is the matriarch of a sixth-generation family. ••
