Celebrating a Century! Happy Birthday, Doris Greenstein

Special to the Transcript

The Parc at Harbor View is delighted to celebrate Doris Greenstein, long-time Winthrop resident on her 100th birthday, on Thursday, December 2nd! Doris has the honor of being the very first resident at The Parc at Harbor View to turn 100! We had a big party in her honor, complete with a beautiful cake from Spinelli’s, a fun bouquet of balloons from Balloon City, a lovely bouquet of flowers arranged by our concierge, Anita Goddard and of course, we had music from the Big Band Era.

 Doris was born, in Boston, on December 2, 1921. She has lived in Newton, Athol and the longest amount of time of her life was spent right here in Winthrop. Doris attended Winthrop High School and two years at Boston University. She was an administrative assistant for thirty years in the fields of health and law. Doris worked for three different doctors and also her former husband, who was a lawyer. She also worked in mutual funds. She has two sons who visit her as often as possible.

Doris has a beautiful smile, a great sense of humor and is well-loved by residents and staff at The Parc at Harbor View! She is sharp as a tack and especially enjoys lectures, trivia, parties, entertainment and other special events. We are so grateful to have her as part of our community!
