Fred turns 100

Woy Woy local Wilfred Henry Adams, known to everyone as Fred, celebrated his 100th birthday on June 20.

Fred has lived in the area since his retirement 40 years ago, firstly at Bulkara St, Wagstaffe Point, where he and his wife Enid were involved in all community affairs, played bowls as members of Avoca Beach Bowling Club, and attended local dances.

They moved to Peridon Village, Empire Bay, when they reached their 80s.

Enid died 10 years ago.

Now that Fred is on his own, he needs full care and currently lives at Peninsula Village in the hostel apartments where he still enjoys life, joining in all of the games and entertainment that the village provides.

Fred celebrated his birthday on Sunday, June 20, at Fisherman's Wharf, Woy Woy with members of his family.
