"It tells you something about his soul. The man just glows." CJS 11-11-2006, 08:46 AM yeah, it was a cool article. Can you imagine being 111? RMG 11-11-2006, 08:53 AM yeah, it was a cool article. Can you imagine being 111? I wonder if I'll still be posting here.....:yikes: Blockade Runner 11-11-2006, 12:01 PM I know people like that in my church. He just turned 95 and I'm like "no way" is he That old as they're giving him flowers at the back near the foyer. realmac 11-12-2006, 02:13 PM I hope so. You have so much to offer people seeking to better themselves. With technological advancements and a healthy lifestyle, I don't think living till 100 will be too out of the ordinary. :) thinktom 11-12-2006, 04:15 PM The elderly are our greatest source of inspiration.
