Good genes help...
OP here again... Evidently I come from the deep end of the gene pool. My dad made it to 92 and my uncle, his older brother just passed last week at 96 {at 93 my daughter introduced him to Farmers Only and was actually active on the site}. Mom went at 87 and I have a couple of aunts who lived longer than that.
Most of these folks were Michigan/Indiana farmers, definitely a hardy group. My uncles farm has been in the family for more than 160 years with both he and dad being born in the back bedroom.
