What a fabulous time it was when many travelled to North Stradbroke Island to celebrate the 60th birthday of Nancye Heath. Several members of Nancye’s family and some special friends travelled north to the island home of Kate (Nancye and John’s daughter) to enjoy some time celebrating this special birthday.
A HUGE surprise was the arrival of her son David from Canada. He had travelled for 55 hours to be with her on her birthday!
Among the highlights for those who travelled to Stradbroke island were a whale watching trip and a beautiful celebration dinner.
Most certainly a good time was had by all,
AND a little belated but HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANCYE.
YUSUF’S DEPARTURE
Many locals know Harden’s doctor Yusuf Khalfan - well after 38 years of loyal service to the people of Harden and district he and his wife have decided to close the Harden Medical Centre at the end of July and to fulfil a long standing passion and ambitiion to provide humanitarian services in the under developed countries.
This plan cam about after they spent a recent holiday in Africa and South East Asia.
Dr Khalfan commented “I have been offered an opportunity to make the above move and have deliberated long and hard before making a decision to leave Harden after so many years here, and where we reared our four boys in a very loving, loyal and friendly community.”
I feel sure Dr Khalfan will be sorely missed.

GOOD LUCK.
