Julie Barry, executive manager of residential aged care at Carrington, presented Ms Stuart with a stunning bouquet of flowers on behalf of the Carrington team to celebrate the big birthday during morning tea.
Ms Stuart has long called the Macarthur region home, first living in the Burragorang Valley before moving to Werombi after the valley was flooded to cater for Warragamba Dam.
She has three children, two grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren.
Ms Stuart worked as a Post Mistress at Werombi Post Office and has enjoyed many interests and hobbies throughout her life, including tennis, dancing, gardening and cooking.
She said gardening was what 'kept her going and staying active'.
A very happy birthday to Ms Phyllis Stuart!
