HE MAY HAVE worked with ice for many years, but centenarian Frank Moore was warm and jovial as he celebrated another year by returning to his former workplace.
Yesterday family, friends and former colleagues at BICO?showered him with praise during a party at the ice cream company for the 101-year-old.
Moore marked his latest milestone on January 9 and daughter Cecilia Moore said her father joined the company in the early 1950s, working in the block ice department before retiring in the 1980s.
An avid Spartan cricket club fan, Moore was described by former co-workers as a humble, hard-working man.
“I can say working with him that he was a very nice person he never got involved in any quarrel,” Victor Farrell, a retired employee said of Moore.
Albert Blenman served as the centenarian’s supervisor and agreed with Farrell.
“We worked together at Bay Street, I was Frank’s supervisor and I can say he is a very nice fella. He never quarrel with anybody, he never curse, he was quiet.” (LW)
