Ruby Druce, 108
Rinne an saoránach is sine i nDún na nGall, Ruby Druce, ceiliúradh ar a breithlá mór ar Oíche Chinn Bhliana.
Rugadh Ruby i gCaisleán na Finne. Tá sí ag ceiliúradh a breithlá agus í 108 bliain d'aois.
Tá Ruby ar an cheathrú duine is sine in Éirinn agus tá sí ar an duine is sine i nDún na nGall.
Rugadh Ruby ar an 31 Nollaig, 1915, agus tá cónaí uirthi anois lena neacht Margo Butler i Leitir Ceanainn, a chuir síos ar a haintín mar "bean cineálta le croí óir".
"Déanann muid go leor gáire agus is maith an cuideachta í," a dúirt Margo.
Iníon le George Crawford agus Elizabeth (née McBride) í Ruby agus creideann sí gur siúl, obair chruaigh agus capsule laethúil ola ae troisc atá freagrach as a saol iontach.
Baineann Ruby sult as ag dul ar chuairt go Caisleán na Finne agus ag dul isteach imBialann McGlynn. I 2022, rinne Ruby lascadh oifigiúil na soilse Nollag ina baile dúchais.
Is ceannródaí í Ruby ar feadh a saoil. Nuair a bhí sí trí bliana d’aois, tugadh poitín di nuair a fuair sí fliú na Spáinne, i 1918, i ndiaidh bás a deartháir James agus a deirfiúr Mary Elizabeth.
