Through five global pandemics and two World Wars, Ken Weeks has lived all 112 years of his remarkable life to the fullest. Described by his family as a true Aussie battler, Weeks is not only the country's oldest living person but also the oldest Australian man on record. "My grandpa's life reflects the Aussie battle - his determination, ingenuity and hope are inspirational," she said. He lived independently in the same home for 65 years before moving into care at Whiddon Grafton just before his 105th birthday. "Today, at 112, he stands as Australia's oldest living person," Whiddon chief executive Chris Mamarelis said.
