🤝💙 Crowley Care is proud to support and host the NSW Health ‘Stepping On’ program each week in our Activity Centre.

This 7-week exercise program, delivered by NSW Health, is designed to help older adults who live at home reduce their risk of falls and maintain their independence by providing practical strategies, education and gentle movement in a welcoming group setting.

At Crowley Care, we’re proud to open our doors to programs that support safety, confidence and independence in our community. 💙

❤️ Valentine’s at Crowley: Love Stories That Last ❤️

Meet Stuart and Maureen, whose love story began in a university lab — working side by side for a year with no hint of romance. It wasn’t until a chaotic family camping trip at Sussex Inlet that love quietly blossomed.

Engaged just months later, they married in April 1955 and are now celebrating an incredible 70 years of marriage, with four children, two grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

💬 Their secret to a happy marriage?
Give and take, let each other do their own thing — but do the important things together.

❤️ Valentine’s at Crowley: Love Stories That Last ❤️

Meet Gordon and Sharon, whose love story began at a party when Gordon, just 21, was playing his guitar. When 19-year-old Sharon walked in wearing a yellow and white panel dress, with beautiful black hair, Gordon says he knew straight away - she was the one he would marry.

Just 7 months later, they were married, beginning a journey that has now spanned 57 years. Together they’ve built a loving family of 3 children, 9 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren.

💬 Their secret to a happy marriage?
Love each other, listen to each other and care for each other.

❤️ Valentine’s at Crowley: Love Stories That Last ❤️

Meet Jim and Bev, whose love story began with a blind date organised by Bev’s sister. After dinner with family, their very first date ended at the speedway - and clearly, it was a winning combination.
While they were dating, Jim and Bev loved Sunday picnics and trips to the movies, enjoying the simple pleasures of time spent together. After around three years of dating, they were married in March 1964.

Now, after 62 years of marriage, they share a beautiful family of 3 children, 2 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren.

💬 Their secret to a happy marriage?
Jim laughs, “When she says jump, I say how high.” 😄💕

❤️ Valentine’s at Crowley: Love Stories That Last ❤️

Meet Pat and Dawn, whose love story began at a Sunday night dance at Bronte Beach - with entry costing just two shillings. Pat was 24, Dawn was 19, and from that night on, their story was set in motion.

They became engaged in May 1955 and married in April 1956, beginning a journey that has now spanned nearly seven decades. Together they’ve raised 3 children, welcomed 7 grandchildren, and now delight in 7 great-grandchildren.

This year, Pat and Dawn will celebrate an incredible 70 years of marriage — and as Pat happily shares, Dawn still likes him! 💛

💬 Their secret to a happy marriage?
Respect each other, and when you make your vows, you stick to them.

❤️ Valentines at Crowley: Love Stories that Last❤️

Meet William and Margaret, whose love story began at work. William was in real estate and needed a PA - and Margaret stepped in to organise what she laughs was a very big filing system! Before long, Margaret was selling houses, William was selling rural properties, and their story grew from there.

When they started dating, they loved nothing more than driving through the countryside together - a simple joy that marked the beginning of a lifelong partnership.

William and Margaret have now been together for 46 years, raising 5 children, welcoming 11 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren along the way.

💬 Their secret to a happy marriage?
Having a sense of humour and not holding grudges.

Our Independent Living residents enjoyed coming together for a classic BBQ this week - and the aroma of sizzling snags and onions gets us every time!
