How old is your oldest living sibling....

[bowmore]

my sister is 83 and lives on the East Coast. We talk once a week to catch up. The disparity between East and West Coast attitudes is amazing.

I have one older sister. She is 74 years old. We are no longer in touch.

My older sister is 74. We live 1300 miles apart, so I don't get to see her too often. I am hoping she can come for a visit early next year. She lives in Wisconsin so a trip to Florida in February or March would be a nice escape from the winter weather for her. I miss seeing her, but we text a lot to keep in touch.
