Dick celebrates 60 years of service
FOR 60 years, Dick Daley has been going to work at the same place every day – a place he loves and that has made him a big part of the small community of Tolga.
For the 60 years he has spent at his BP service station in Tolga, Dick Daley was presented with a special plaque by Keith Joyce from BP and Bernie Morris from Lowes Petroleum (right).
Last week, Dick celebrated six decades of working at his BP service station in Tolga where, at 93 years of age, he still goes to every day to fill up customers’ cars.
Dick began his career in the motoring sector back in 1946 as an apprentice at Turner Agencies, then he started his own business working out of his backyard until, in 1964, he got the opportunity to buy the quaint service station in Tolga.
Dick has been at the small BP Service Station ever since, firstly as a mechanic until he put the tools down in 2016, content to fill up cars with fuel for locals and passersby ever since.
On Wednesday, Dick was presented with a special plaque by BP and Lowes Petroleum.
