Lottie turns 103!
TOLGA identity Lottie Hastie OAM has celebrated her 103rd birthday, surrounded by friends and family from across the country.

Ms Hastie has worn many hats over her the past century as a stewardess of the QCWA and a founding member of the Tolga Historical Society.
She also helped establish the Blue Nurse service in the local area, which cared for patients in their own homes (now known as Blue Care).
During her birthday celebrations, she wore her OAM medal proudly and shared stories with everyone who attended.
Tolga Historical Society president Rob Fuller paid tribute to her and their longstanding friendship, ending by looking at his watch and reminding Lottie that her birthday lunch should be wrapped up before 3pm so there’d be time to set up for this month’s meeting.
