Oh Jennifer, to this 80 yo this inspirational article about a vivacious and fully engaged 96 yo is so inspiring. I'll share this with my group of 16 who I send "covid??" research to that they're too busy to always search for themselves. Thanks for sharing!

Loved this and read much aloud to my husband. A lot reminded me of my own mom who lived to almost 102. I had never asked myself exactly what secrets to longevity she held. This provided great insight. Brava to your remarkable mother!

My father will be 96 in a few months but he is not quite that active. He still lives at home by himself and occasionally drives. He has done nothing special to have lived so long. I guess age isn't the thing but how you feel and what you do at any age. I think it is mostly a mental thing. Nice to read this. Thanks.

Wonderful sharing this. I'm thinking of doing a needlepoint in her honor. I won't but this deserves a needlepoint.

I am thinking that this 90+ year old could start a zoom...and we can learn...how to bake bread, hamburger rolls, cinnamon buns, can, sew etc...I am ready to learn to have such skills. I can bake bread and what not and when I do I am never certain it will work out. Can you imagine doing those baking tasks and knowing it will work and be delicious every time? What luxury!
