I had the pleasure of going along to take some pictures at the 108th birthday party of war veteran William Stone, in a care home in Berkshire. William Stone served in the Royal Navy in both world wars and is one of the last survivors of the Great War. He has a beaming smile which truly lights up the room, and for a man of his years he was surprisingly aware and intent on enjoying his day.
NOTE: Since this post was written, William Stone has passed away. He died on 13/01/2009, aged 108.
