The oldest person in my family (so far!) died a year ago this month and she was 101. I say "so far" because I have an uncle now who is 98 and doing very well.

As far as I know, my maternal great-grandmother lived the longest, passing away at 96. My mom was the 2nd longest-lived, dying at 88. Most of us check-out in our mid 70s.
And after thinking about it, I cant' think of any who died of natural causes, except for my great-grandma. It's always been an illness, an accident, or a war.

My paternal grandmother was my longest living relative. She died at age 91. She had 9 children, and the longest living was my aunt, who died at age 88. I'm embarrassed to say I did not know this information and had to do 45 minutes of internet research this morning to find it.

My Grandmother passed away at 95. My Great Grandmother at 91.
At 75 Im the oldest and only one left in my family. I figure Ive got at least another 20 left to go.

My grandmother's twin sister died at 105. My grandmother died in her early 90s, for some reason I don't remember if she was 92 or 93. My Dad died 2 weeks before his 93rd birthday.
