FATHER’S DAY SPECIAL FEATURE
Every Dad has his day Father’s Day is the perfect opportunity to celebrate what makes Dads so precious - and Hall & Prior have plenty of fathers who deserve to put their feet up on their special day. Here’s how some of them view the business of fathering, in their own words.
DAVID WOODLAND, 78 Sirius Cove Aged Care Home, NSW
I
was married to my wife Lin for nearly 40 years until she died at the age of 59. We have three children - Jason, Tonya and Danny. Lin and I were Ten Pound Poms and met on the Castel Felice ship on a long but enjoyable journey from England to Australia. We got married in Australia and settled in Adelaide where I owned and ran the Styles Restaurant. I had trained in hospitality in England as a silver service waiter where I learned to cook for guests at their tables. I was the head chef at Styles Restaurant and we served French cuisine; my son Jason was the floor manager taking care of guests and staff.
