My mom died a few months before she was 103. Her cousin died a few years later at 109. They both remembered the first car, airplane, etc. my mom remembered going to church with her dad to pray for survivors of the Titanic. They both went from horse and wagon or buggy to man on the moon. They are missed.
We’ve got a family picture with 5 generations in it and my great great grandfather is holding me. He was born in 1862 and he ended up missing the moon landing by about 4-6 months. I’ve got a grandmother left, she’ll be 99 in December and she’s still up and about.
Had all of them up til I was 43 and they were (and are) all pretty mobile and independent up until the end, THAT has been one of the Lords best blessings to me :-)
