Mrs Cuthbertson celebrated the day with a family afternoon tea at Ross Home and Hospital in Dunedin.
Her ''baby'' sister, Joyce Johnson, said Mrs Cuthbertson (nee Connor) had been a ''good churchgoing woman''.
''She's a good Christian, and I don't say that lightly,'' Mrs Johnson said.
Mrs Johnson said the guests, who came from as far as Perth, had a wonderful time at the afternoon tea.
Mrs Cuthbertson, who only went into care a couple of years ago, was one of eight children, and had lived her whole life in Dunedin.
Mrs Cuthbertson's daughter, Denise Downes, of Dunedin , said her mother was a ''wonderful woman'' who was a skilled embroiderer and was in the church choir.
She had three children, seven grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren.
