Meet the Resident: Greg We chatted with Greg who has recently arrived at Cumberland View aged care living. Greg was happy to share some of his life story with us. Greg was born in Chatswood NSW in 1948 and enjoyed growing up with two brothers and a beautiful sister. The family moved from Sydney to Brisbane and then to Melbourne because his Dad worked for Golden Fleece as an accountant. Greg enjoyed school and playing with his siblings. Greg has always loved animals, in fact he shares that he adores them. He currently donates to many animal welfare societies and has a fine collection of “Back Yard Buddies” stuffed toy purchased as part of his donations. Greg has been a keen table tennis player with the Croydon Vic team and played 10 pin bowling up until recently. To say he is a caring man is an understatement having worked with meals on wheels and other charitable organisations including the Lions club for 36 years. Greg worked for the Veteran Department of affairs from 1966 – 1996 and loved working there.
He loves the news and watches 3 channels religiously from 5:00pm – 7:30pm daily and enjoys watching nature documentaries – anything that has animals in it. We can’t wait to see Greg joining in the carpet bowls as he shared this is something he would enjoy doing here. Welcome to Cumberland View Greg.
