My Dad was a smoker and he never made it past 92

See!! What more evidence do you need!

My mother's older sister smoked two packs a day for 60+ years and died at 88. My mother never smoked or drank and died at .... you guessed it, 88.

Their parents were heavy smokers, too. Each died in their late 80s. Maybe it had something to do with genes, ya think?

Oh yes......it IS genetic!
