    Re: found the wardens grandparents today



    It's in the Genes, my Grandparents lived to 95 & 94.
    Last year, while interviewing a lady (104), I told her: don't you know those cigarettes may kill you.
    We had a good laugh, she lived one more year after that.

    That is great, to live to be over 100. I hope he had a good quality of life. My wife's grandmother lived to be 99 and died just short of her 100th birthday, only problem she had advanced 'altimeters' disease and did not know anybody. She could carry on a conversation with you but was not very aware otherwise. It was sad because I knew her for many years and watched her decline.

    Longevity means nothing without the quality of life.

    Lot of smokers did better with the conditions in
    the mines than those that did not smoke.
