EDITORS COMMENTS
Jackie Milburn, the legendary footballer and local hero, is seen here in this heartwarming print from 1980. The occasion was the official opening of the much-anticipated flats for the elderly at Parkside Court in Wideopen, Newcastle. With a beaming smile on his face, Jackie stands alongside four distinguished gentlemen - Wilson Bell, Jock Grierson, Stephen Ward, and Andy English - all residents of Parkside Court. In this snapshot frozen in time, these men exude joy and contentment as they engage in conversation with their esteemed guest. Their smiles are infectious and reflect a sense of camaraderie that has developed within this close-knit community of older adults. It is evident that these flats have become more than just buildings; they have become homes filled with cherished memories and lifelong friendships. This photograph captures an era when respect for elders was deeply ingrained within society. It serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of providing safe and comfortable housing options for our aging population. Through Jackie Milburn's presence at this event, we witness not only his commitment to supporting initiatives for seniors but also his genuine warmth towards those who call Parkside Court home. As we admire this beautiful image from Memory Lane Prints by NCJ, let us celebrate the spirit of unity among these remarkable individuals whose lives were enriched by their shared experiences within these walls.
