Stroke club president turns 90

Woy Woy Stroke Recovery Club president Mr Ernie Williams turned 90 on Wednesday, January 11.

His milestone was celebrated with a birthday party at Lizotte's restaurant in Kincumber on Saturday, January 14.

The party was hosted by his son Geoff and grandson Ben and attended by friends and relatives from WA, SA and NSW.

The Point Clare local also received seven letters of congratulations from federal and state politicians, along with the NSW governor.

Mr Williams joined Woy Woy Stroke Recovery Club in 1997 after his wife Grace had a stroke.

He was appointed president in 2002, a position which he still holds today.

Prior to taking up residence at Woodport Retirement Village in Point Clare, Mr Williams lived in Umina.

In 1985, he began an 18 year service to Woy Woy Meals on Wheels, an organisation of which he is now a life member.
