Lynne,

You are a lucky woman to have your mother that long and to have such a great relationship. She sounds like a really intereseting woman.

On a side note, there is a woman who lives in a little town south of us that is now (I believe) 103 and still going. She takes 2 pills a day and one of them is a Centrum Silver. She taught my grandmother and great aunt in 8th grade and she still remembers them in detail. She told my mom and I a story about a guy who had a bi-plane and he landed in a field beside the school where she taught and her dad came over and met them and paid the guy to take her for a plane ride, so he did, and she went up in the plane and waved at the students as they watched from the ground!
