Virginia McLaurin’s last few birthdays have all been memorable, including a birthday with the Harlem Globetrotters and receiving a presidential medal.
However, one of her most cherished memories was when she met then-President Barack Obama and then-First Lady Michelle Obama in 2016.
McLaurin danced with the couple in a video that went viral on social media.
However, this year, for her 110th birthday, she decided to keep it a little low-key.
“This year, they feel like maybe it’s too much for me because, I don’t know, they said we want to keep her as long as we can,” she said.
McLaurin remains in good spirits.
