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, Mr 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.
“Today, at 112, he stands as Australia’s oldest living person,” Whiddon chief executive Chris Mamarelis said.
Surrounded by loved ones and gifts, Mr Weeks was seen smiling during his early birthday celebration.
