Mrs Daphne McLeod celebrated her 100th birthday with family and friends at a gathering at RFBI Dubbo Masonic Village.

Her niece Joan McLeod spoke of Daphne’s long association with Dubbo, including her role as the foundation president of West Dubbo Bowling Club, and with her partner Ben Ison having two businesses in Talbragar Street, The Speedwell Bicycle Shop and Rubberworks.

Dubbo Photo News was also told that her favourite reply when asked how she is going is, “I’m alright for a young girl!”

Happy 100th birthday, Daphne.
