103rd Birthday Celebration

A Hollis woman sang and danced during her 103rd birthday celebration Friday.

Staff at Holliswood Center for Rehabilitation and Healthcare celebrated resident Corine Johnson’s 103rd birthday Friday morning.

Johnson credits her faith for helping reach one hundred and three. She was an ordained minister and a housewife in South Ozone Park.

She had six children and even more grandchildren and great grandchildren.

\"I like to see people but I always like to talk to ’em about the Lord,\" Johnson said.

\"It feels pretty good. What can I say? To live to a hundred, that’s pretty good,\" said Cliff Johnson, Corine’s son.

Corine Johnson celebrated with her entire family later in the day.

Care. Support. Positive Outcomes. Centers Health Care.

Centers Health Care provides rehabilitation, skilled nursing and long-term care for people with a wide range of needs. Whether someone is recovering from surgery, managing an illness or simply needs more support than can be provided at home, our staff is there to help.

The goal is not exactly the same for everyone. It may be returning home, becoming stronger, staying independent or simply feeling better and more comfortable from one day to the next. There will be progress, setbacks and difficult days along the way. Our job is to be there through all of it, and to help each patient or resident get as far as he or she can.

Sometimes that progress comes in large steps. More often, it comes in small ones. Either way, every step matters.

Our Steps to Home series follows patients through rehabilitation and the journey from hospital to home:
