Australia Day 2006 Awards in Thornleigh
Happy New Year to you all. And happy belated Australia Day (26 January). It is the time that Australia honours special citizens. And you are pleased to let you know that a local was so honoured, Frank Fayers.
Well Frank has finally got what he deserved - recognition for all his good work in the community. Below is an article in the local paper (Hornsby Advocate) about Frank and the award. For those of you not familiar with the Australian award system, here is a link to describe Frank's OAM. http://www.itsanhonour.gov.au/about/medal_descriptions/order_of_australia.html The OAM is the last of 4 on this page.
Wandering around the site will give you more insight to the various aspects of the various awards.
Congratulations Frank!
