PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- A 103-year-old fan was honored by the Philadelphia Phillies Thursday.



Catalina Rolon has been a Phillies fan since she came to the region in 1955.



Originally from Puerto Rico, Rolon served as a nurse, treating soldiers during the Korean War.



She came to Philadelphia to raise her family, and instantly became a Phillies fan.



The 103-year-old says she never misses a game.



Her daughter Judy joined her mother on the field to celebrate.
