 A Cincinnati woman just celebrated her 100th birthday Monday.

Ann Kohstall celebrated with friends and family at one of her favorite restaurants – Cancun.

Kohstall has quite the story. She helped raise her grandchildren after her daughter died from cancer. She says it was her daughter's wish that she would take care of them, so she did.

Her family says they had to push back celebrations due to the snowstorm but were finally able to get together.

When asked what it felt like to be 100 years old, she responded, "just like I did when I was 30!"

She has three children, nine grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren.

When her husband Charles died in 1995, she got a job at the North College Hill Senior Center, where she worked until retiring at age 99.

"She’s as stubborn as they come, but we love her like crazy," her daughter said.
