Longevity on my Mother's side, she lost her first sibling (of 6) last year at 97-98, her mother lived to be 104. Alas, my Father's side of the family has not fared as well in the longevity department, his mother passed when he was 11 (1933) and his father at 55, my Dad at 54 (2 weeks from 55) and his one full sister also at 55, his half brother did a bit longer, as did his stepmom into her 90s, but that does not count. I do miss Grandma Lulu though, she was a fabulous Auntie Mame kind of grandma. I figure I will be lucky to hit somewhere in the middle!
