Joan Symonds & Bill (Yooka) Symonds 
1929-2011   1922-2015
The Waverley community is Indebted to the lifetime 
of service of Joan and Bill Symonds 
In 1946 Bill helped found the Bondi United Rugby League 
Club and with Joan was the heart and soul of the club. 
They both volunteered with Waverley Council's Meals 
on Wheels from its Inception in 1972 
Committed supporters of Wairoa School, their tireless 
efforts saw the implementation of countless significant 
resources and programs. 
A remarkable couple, Joan and Bill's enthusiasm 
and passion have helped shape the 
local community. 
 
This plaque is situated on the promenade at their beloved Bondi Beach.

Submitted by their children.
