Aubrey Osmund Roberts, affectionately known as “Uncle Aubrey” or “Labba,” of Golden Grove, East Coast Demerara is celebrating his 100th birthday, according to the Ministry of Human Services and Social Security.

A familiar face in his community, Uncle Aubrey has spent his years working hard, raising a family of 17 children and sharing countless memories with his loved ones.

To celebrate this special milestone, a team from the Ministry’s Difficult Circumstances Unit (DCU) paid him a visit and presented him with a care package on behalf of Minister of Human Services and Social Security, Dr. Vindhya Persaud.
