[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1777355, member: 12607"] Yep. My paternal grandparents were born in 1887; maternal grandparents in 1902. l have an aunt on each side of the family, still surviving all their other siblings. Dad's baby sister is 94... worked until she was well into her 80s... currently helping my cousin (68, still working full-time) who has adopted and is raising her 15y.o. granddaughter. she still drives, mows her own lawn, tends her own garden - has all her wits about her, and is as spry and handsome as she was 40 years ago. Mom's baby sister is 85. After those two go to their reward, my cousins and I will be 'the old folks'... but we're spread out over an age range from 52 to 80. I pretty much know all my first cousin's kids, but not many of those kids' kids... and some of those have kids of their own whom I would never recognize. [/QUOTE]
